Ted Shawn Theatre, Jacob’s Pillow Dance Festival, Becket, Massachusetts, 2011

The paired roofs of this 620-seat theatre, built in 1942 as the first in North America constructed specifically for dance, form matching diagonals. The weather vane above them features the silhouette of a dancer, which in itself is a study in diagonal thrusts. The clouds above echo the flow of both the roof and the weather vane. I exposed for the bright areas, allowing the theatre itself to become a backlighted abstraction.
