Beatlemania '64: Candid Camera

As part of the musical Beatlemania '64 which I have been directing, one of the characters takes 'candid camera' shots on his new Polaroid as part of his university project, entitled 'A Collage of Contemporary Culture'. The idea is that these pictures are then projected onto a backdrop as part of the final scene.

So I took these photos of the cast in 'compromising positions' for this reason. Here they are:


Alison Douglas as Joyce Tobin



Angus Welsh as Constable Ogilvie

Bruce Patton

Caitlin Rivers as Wendy



Caitlin Sexton as Elizabeth

Clark Kirkwood as Rob




David Cantwell as Paddy



Family portrait

James Stephenson as Merve



Kasey Visser as Becky

Leah Farrell as Cynthia



Lorraine Copeland as Mrs Smith



Mitch Martin as Alister



Nigel Douglas as Alf



Norman Smith



Samuel Farr as Davy





Sarah Cassidy as Sophie



Shona Blair as Mrs Evans



Sue Dennis as Mrs Brown



Wink Gillespie as Gran

Congratulations to all the wonderful cast and crew on a great show. You should all be very proud of what you have achieved, and I hope your audience tells you just how much they loved you all.

My very special thanks must go to Jill Grealish who was production manager/ stage manager/ prompt/ assitant director/ wardrobe assistant and general all-round production angel.
