Photo Gallery: MY FAIR LADY
In 2004 Mark Adams had written a script
for his next film after LOST SOULS. It would have been a dramatic sci-fi story
like DECONSTRUCTION or END OF THE LINE called NOWHERE, KANSAS. But as he was
finishing pre-production he was cast as Col. Pickering in Barton County
Community College's Spring Musical MY FAIR LADY. Putting the film on hold, Mark
began rehearsals for the famous musical, looking forward to playing a leading
role in the show. Once the performances were complete, and he produced and
edited the video of the show as well as The Making of MY FAIR LADY, Mark planned
to start working on the film NOWHERE, KANSAS again. But soon he had been hired
as an EFP Specialist at SCETV in Columbia, South Carolina and ended up leaving
Barton County Community College after 11 years there.
The following photographs are from
Barton's production of MY FAIR LADY, featuring Mark Adams as Col. Pickering.
Digital photos of the rehearsals were taken by Lori Underwood and Michael
Dawes.
