Norwood High School - Norwood MA presents the 1928 Russian comedy "The Suicide" ... it's a fun romp with guns and girls and slapstick ... and red boxer shorts and ... a carrot and a sausage and ... well, it's Russian. You will laugh ...
I always try to give a little extra when I am photographing a school play. The arts are so important and the kids put so much effort into their performances. Actually I am amazed at their talent.
The Suicide was written in Russia circa 1928 - in the time of Stalin. It gives us a view of what type of comedy was in vauge at the time. And it was slapstick and political.
I have no idea if these red Russian boxers were listed as part of the costumes, but they sure did produce a funny moment in the play
Of course the play was about a suicide, which we never see and I think never happens. So it was a fun romp ... like I said!
