Theater production photography gives you the opportunity to tease your audience with intriguing, story telling images that can spark their curiosity and get them to that key moment when they click that “buy a ticket” button.

Every theatrical production, from short plays, to full blown musicals, needs some form of marketing to help achieve the proverbial “butts in seats”.

The Many Forms of Theater Production Photography

Theater production photography can take many forms and has many different uses for the savvy theater director and publicity department.

For example:

  • – behind the scenes photography to spark interest in the play
  • poster key art photography to grab eyeballs on posters and postcards
  • – dress rehearsal photography to be sent out to reviewers and bloggers about the show’s run
  • Character portraits for social media campaigns
  • – And, of course, all of these document the show in it’s best light. Put it in a scrapbook for reference and fundraising for your future shows
