5 minutes of fame
So when Svetlana was telling everyone their parts there still wasn't anyone to play the evil queen in the show Once Upon a Tutu that I'm doing in September. Since I had a blast in Snow White being a vulture back in 2008 I volunteered to be the evil queen...playing evil is sooooo much fun, but there's a twist to it. Instead of it being the evil queen from Snow White that goes into the cauldron and comes out ugly, it's Maleficent from Sleeping Beauty that goes in and comes out beautiful but more evil. So I'm Maleficent before she goes into the cauldron and an incredible jazz teacher is 'me' when she comes out. I finally get to be evil on stage and Svetlana says that the part is perfect for me. I plan to go all out with this part, including the make up ;) So Maleficent before the cauldron will be red hair and black and green makeup while after she comes out, she has black short hair and black and purple makeup so there's a distinct difference in the transformation. So I get to have fun with eye makeup!! Here's what's it'll look like ;)
There'll be a slight difference in the eyeliner on the bottom of my eye but the gist is the same...I can't wait to start playing around with it!! So Svetlana calls it my 5 minutes of fame of being evil and I'm enjoying every second of it!

Okay, that is definitely better than what I thought you would have to do. I thought your whole face would be green but that is definitely more elegant.

ReplyDeleteCongrats on getting to be evil ;) What's this cauldron business?
The makeup sounds/looks very slick. I'm stoked about what the costume will look like.*_*
