Out of Bounds Festival Fever

by Andreas on August 30, 2010

Makeup Magic

Preparations for the next season of Dusk are still going strong. We finished the photo shoot with help from Jon Bolden and liberal application of make-up. The transformations from human to vampire and werewolf were quite startling. Now the post-production work begins and we are itching to see the final results.

Love/Hate Relationship

Dusk is a very physical and oftentimes intimate show – so we spend quite some time with contact exercises and games to help the cast members to get comfortable with each other.

Special Effects

And of course we had to revamp our special effects with new and improved ways to bring the magic of Hollywood to the SVT stage.

Please come and watch DUSK at the Out of Bounds Festival. On the 1st of September, 8 pm, we will be playing with Midnight Society at the Salvage Vanguard Theater. Tickets are on sale now.

DUSK – Season Two

by Andreas on August 18, 2010

A few days ago we kicked off the production for the second season of Dusk – Improvised Tween Erotica. We are all excited to see where the show will go – there are many new themes, characters and villains to explore.  Our expectations have grown with the show and we want to step up everything from lighting and music to the stage design. We now have Dana Yanoshak as our stage manager, a very welcome  addition to the team.

Besides rehearsing we are working on our marketing: we just finished the video shoot for our promo trailer and next up will be the photo shoot for our print materials. The behind-the-scenes work is always a lot of fun and it’s very rewarding to see the finished product that everybody contributed to.

There were changes in the cast as well as some of our fellow Duskies left, but we also attracted a few new ones:
Ace Manning, Andreas Fabis, Audrey Sansom, Avimaan Syam, Bryan Cruz, Chelsea Gilman, Courtney Hopkin, Hugo Zesati, Katie Thornton, Kyle Traughber, Lauren Zinn, Michael Thomas, Sarah Marie Tufts, and Shana Merlin.

Your first chance to catch DUSK is at the Out of Bounds Festival. We will be playing with Midnight Society on the 1st of September, 8 pm at the Salvage Vanguard Theater. Tickets onsale now.
