"Arizona Ballet Theatre Salutes The Americas 2014"

 

Jacob, having wrestled with an Angel of The Lord all night, asks the Angel to bless him. The Angel blesses him and says henceforth his name shall be Israel (Yisra-El in Hebrew) He who contends with The Lord.

 

I shot Jacob And The Angel in the theatre at yesterday's dress rehearsal of "Arizona Ballet Theatre Salutes The Americas 2014." The lighting is dramatically low, so I had to shoot at slower shutter speeds than I like to use.

Performances are Saturday Evening at 6 pm and Sunday Matinee at 3 pm, in the University Of Arizona's Stevie Eller Dance Theatre.

Miss Cecily, Arizona Ballet Theatre's Artistic Director, said this was the best rehearsal photo I had ever taken. Nice to hear...;))
