Nice shots, especially like the last one. I've never seen them in person but from what I have seen of them it seems like it would be a blast.

Thanks, Bio. They are not only a good show, but also very interesting as individuals ... they are multitalented.

Well, "ambient" may not exactly apply to stage productions, but if you asking if I used flash, no as it is not permitted in my venue. However, there are up to four very powerful follow spots that are daylight balanced in addition to about 150 additional fixed and robotic lights and make for excellent lighting for most things.

Technically okay images, but very, extremely, boring light…

So, you are reduced down to the "boringness" of light for critique? LOL ... not even an "It's a pity." I agree, but part of being able to do the illusions they do requires the high contrast, unidirectional light.

Love P&T. Bull**** is is great show. Must have been a fun shoot. You captured them well Dwight.

I always wondered if they would allow photographers as a lot of their stuff is trickery and I am sure they dont want a trick captured during that split second.

Joe, thanks! I'm not sure they knew a photographer would be there but I would never publish anything that I thought could compromise their performance. They are a fun show.

Of course. But I dont know if any of us would even realize what was caught since it would be out of context.
