Photo by Nancy Crampton
I like this photo a little better than the one we’ve seen( but was really happy see the earlier ones, too).
Thanks to Fernanda Matias on the Richard Armitage Appreciation Society Facebook Page.
I’m hoping this means we may get to see more photos taken by the Y’s photographer, Nancy Crampton, soon.

Thanks for sharing, Perry- it’s a lovely ensemble vibe, and RA looks gorgeous and happy. I love the zoom on my ipad!

The photographer told a joke but I couldn’t understand what was said. Lovely picture.

When? Before she took the photo?

Yes, it’s what caused them to laugh.

I may have had something to do with Ed, who’s in the front and laughing. Remember, they called him down from wherever he was?

That’s beautiful, especially the right hand side 😉 I know I can hardly be objective, but doesn’t Richard have that “star Quality” that makes your eye wander straight in his direction?

It does, me,for sure.

I was thinking the same thing, Agzy : grin: dude on the far side w/the tie has a little bit of that “something” too, but not as much as Richard; it’s like the two of them are framing the picture with charisma 😎

A really nice informal group shot. And almost everyone has been caught looking really nice and happy.
I am intrigued (once again) by Mr A’s tactility. See how he has put his hand on his colleague’s shoulder? Does he need anchoring?

It’s a good move, though. Maybe it comes from practice and his stylist’s advice not to leave his arms dangling by his sides. And we get to see that powerful hand. I like this photo, too. Some joke was made just before hand. The co-director, Ed, just ran down to the stage from someplace and threw himself on the floor.

It’s a *very* good move. I didn’t mean to ridicule that. He actually “closes” the image on the right hand side. And he communicates a warm personality that is open to contact.
Great move on the part of the photographer to make a joke and get everyone to relax. Was this the photographer you spoke to? Or was this taken on a cameraphone?

This is a lovely cast photo–everyone looks good. And I love that RA is standing next to whom I presume is Di Trevis–the co-director and his former teacher at LAMDA whom he particularly mentioned in his cast bio.

Yes, that is Di Trevis. And it was she he was enjoying a conversation with in the rehearsal photo we all enjoyed yesterday https://armitageagonistes.wordpress.com/2014/01/25/peter-clements-leads-us-to-another-article-on-pinterproust-the-paris-review-blog/tumblr_mzxos8nb0v1qdz1u3o1_1280/
