Pictures of Joel in "Gianni Schicchi"

Congratulations to Joel and the all the cast of Winthrop's production of Puccini's "Gianni Schicchi." I've heard nothing but good things from faculty, staff, and audience members that saw it. It was a pleasure for me to photograph the dress rehearsals. Here's a few of many outstanding moments I caught.

Family members of the recently deceased Buoso Donati reading the will they discover they've been left out of.

Simone (Joel's character) is saddened by this news.

Ciesca (Heather Wilcox-Stone) bribing Gianni Schicchi (Peter Barton) to get the best parts of Buoso Donati's estate as Simone looks on.
