I come from the land of Humbug
Dec. 17th, 2005 01:05 amI have been in total " Christmas Carol" immersion.
It is always a pleasure to see the usual cast folks.
But this year there is a new director , hence many new cast
members. They are almost uniformly excellent.
So it helps that in the midst of the physical labor a little
artistic pride returns. I need it when a two show day
involves 14 round trips on the stage stairs. Always
carrying some huge heavy victorian costume , 0f course.
But the up side is that I never gain ANY weight during
the holidays.
I do get a rather impressive collection of bandages on most
of my fingers tho'. Between the constant hand washing, the
corset closing , and the "jewels " on the ghost costumes I'm
bleeding every day.
I snuck my phone back stage last week and took a couple of
shots.......
