We are getting close to opening night of the Fantasticks.. Only two more days away. Weird... It feels like only yesterday we started rehearsing. Oh wait, that was like a week ago. That explains the feeling. Stage make-up has now come into play which is my favorite and least favorite part of shows. I love putting on the finishing touches to my character (the foundation, blush, eye-shadow, etc.) but I hate putting it on. I thought, as a little girl, that I would love to wear makeup when I was older. This stems from my mother telling me I wasn't allowed to wear lip gloss until 7th grade. The truth is, I hate putting on makeup in the morning. It is a good day if I manage to slap on some mascara. It is time consuming and not very good for your skin. But, it does you wonders on stage. So here we have the left overs after this evenings rehearsal.
The dress is being worn as a tunic under a purple sweater my aunt Suize knit me for Christmas paired with Target yoga pants for extra comfort, Frye boots for what style I can try to manage in an outfit like this, floral UrbanOutfitters scarf and bangles for days. A successful "roll out of bed in time to leave for morning call" ensemble.
Other previews for you...
My fake boyfriend. He looks very little in this picture but we are the same height. I quite enjoy his scrappy look in this with rosy cheeks and one shoe off. Adorable.
And this is fake boyfriend's fake dad. Jerry is a gem. I am so blessed to know him and work with him in this show. Now, if only he would bring some of his personally brewed beer...
