Impression of The Month: Theater Photography
November 2022 – another month in a row full of love! Oh, that theater photography - never the same and never boring, full of inspiration and excitement. In the photographer's diary that month was noted down a four-day engagement for photograph the festival of puppet plays, this time The 53rd Meeting of Professional Puppet Theaters of Serbia at Puppet Theater Pinocchio – an engagement that once again confirmed the realization of a dream – it's worth dreaming and wishing, you must do, it paid off for me, truly! ☺️

Perhaps words are no longer needed here, the photos certainly speak for themselves, but it is doubtless not out of place to talk about them.

From the very moment you enter the children's theater, you create a completely different experience of the entire theater atmosphere – starting with children's shouts and mischief in the hall of the theater, all the way to chain clapping and exclamations of "Play, play" in the hall before the start. It is truly heart-warming to see the auditorium filled with little ones eagerly awaiting the lights out and the first voices, the first movements, the music. Somehow, all of this together makes you forget your problems even for a moment, cheers you up, introduces you to the children's magical world full of imagination and play and brings you back to your childhood – a precious moment, for sure.

Photographing children's theater plays is the same but also different from photographing plays for adults. They are playful, lively, full of characters, changes, music and colors – they cause roars of laughter, but also some frightened screams. Photographing them requires complete attention and speed, everything can change in a moment, it must be followed with a watchful eye. Ah, those actors and their puppets! They should be congratulated, they have chosen a very demanding audience, it is necessary to interest them and occupy their attention, to make them laugh and to teach, that wealth of ours, those adorable kids. ❤️
