Photos On Stage

Merlin holds the glowing sword high against Morgan's magicks, Morgan stands, her dark wings spread behind her holding a deadly dagger, between then the Kingdom is at war
With his troops kneeling behind him, the king dances and leaps with his sword above his head and round shield on his arm.
A young dragon, his eyes glowing and light visible through his scales; chained tied to his neck and a puppeteer posing him dramatically.
Dancer in a yellow dress wearing a golden tiara stands arabesque
Ygraine and Uther falling in love, dancing under the Tree of Life, he in a golden tunic, her in a blue dress.
Dressed in blue, Ygraine is lifted, her dragger held straight before her
The tree of life, without leaves or magic, Merlin dances in front of it, a glowing sword raised high, inviting the magic into the kingdom
The Ladt of the Lake held aloft by dancers representing the waters raises her arms to the glowing sword just above her head
Under a leafless tree, Merlin approaches the beckoning Lady of the Lake wearing blue and Helios in golden reflective clothes.
Merlin rests his forehead against the Dragon, both supplicant in respect
