Photos taken during the winter season of ’35MM’, a 90 minute one act song cycle blending musical genres which tells the stories inspired by twelve photographs. From the small nuances of long term relationships in the rock-tinged duet ‘You Make Me Happy,’ to the gothic all cast number ‘Ballad of Sara Berry,’ the songs explore what might have happened in the moments around the split second captured on film.
