Yesterday evening I met up with Sasha Amaya, Rowan H, Gabrielle Haigh and Naomi Woo in the Mill Road Cemetery to do a photoshoot for Aceton.
When Actéon glimpses Diana bathing in the wood, she seeks revenge by transforming him into a deer. Jubilantly aided by the goddess of the hunt, Actéon’s men, unaware of his fate, pursue the expedition on which they together set out, unknowingly bringing tragedy into their midst.
Here is the poster beautifully designed by Hannah Grace Taylor
The opera Acteon will play 19-20 June in Clare College Chapel.
Update: Read the Varsity review (3.5/5)
For more opera photos, check out the blog post about Livietta and Tracollo from last year.
