[QUOTE="DraganDL, post: 276880, member: 18251"] Since you are about to shoot without an additional light (and, like Don stated - the flash tends to "kill" that "stage atmosphere"), you will most probably going to need as fast a lens as it gets. So, the 50mm f1.8 is going to be more usable in the particular situation. But, bring the kit too, because you will maybe have to shoot at wider angles, sometimes (to capture more of the background/foreground)... Keep in mind that this 50mm does not have a vibration reduction, so try to "steady" your position (either bring a tripod/monopod or try to rest your hands against some firm object like a fence etc., while holding the camera and shooting). Shoot mainly in "aperture priority mode" (using the smallest values - smaller numbers) but take care also that the ISO value does not "jump up" too high and that the shutter speed value doesn't get too low (avoid very long exposures)...
