Black and white photograph of a group of men and women posing for a formal picture on a stage . They are all dressed in costume.  There are 12 men standing in the back, and 8 women seated on chairs in front of them.  The women are wearing ankle-length cocktail dresses, 1920's flapper headbands and are holding flowers in their lap.  The men standing behind them are wearing a variety of costumes.  The man in the very center of the back row is wearing a top hat and tux with a lacy ascot and large faux mustache.

The scenery depicts the  interior of a Grecian estate.  Tall Greek columns are punctuated by elegant doors in the center and painted scenery of mountains and countryside that rise up behind the cast and between the columns.  At the bottom of the photo you can see one row of theater chairs.
