Documenting theatrical and stage events under the often dramatic lighting designed for the production provides a number of specific photographic challenges, and is unlike most every other branch of photography. Theatre & Stage Photography provides an overview of basic photography as it applies to "available-light" situations, and will move both basic and experienced photographers through the process of accurately capturing both the production process and the resultant performance. The book is accompanied by additional web content found at stagephoto.org, including tutorials, author blog, a photo gallery, and more resources.

"Liberty Theater by Rosalind Fox Solomon brings together her photographs made in the Southern United States from the 1970s to 1990s, never before published together as a group. Solomon's images depict a complex terrain of social and emotional issues inherited over generations: a world of class and gender divisions, implied and overt racism, competing notions of liberty, and lurking violence. Journeying through Alabama, Georgia, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, Tennessee, and South California, Solomon draws attention to cultural idiosyncrasies, paradoxes and theatrical displays: a Daughter of the Confederacy sits in costume with a china doll from her collection; a dead tree stump, fenced and suspended with wires is elevated to the status of a Civil War monument; African American boys examine a vitrine of guns as two white police manikins loom behind them. Poised between act and re-enactment, the animate and the inanimate, Solomon's images reveal how history becomes a vernacular performance and identity a form of theatre.--

The photographer Joseph Byron pioneered the profession of stage photography, selling his work to New York newspapers and--partly by virtue of the free publicity it brought his subjects--becoming a member of the city's exclusive theater community. These duotones depict actors at work and rest, famous theaters' interiors and exteriors, backstage documentation, and fancy-dress stage productions of shows like Romeo and Juliet (1899) and The Wizard of Oz (1903). From the Museum of the City of New York's Byron Collection.
