We spend so much time trying to be someone or something we're not that we sometimes forget who we really are. With practice we can be whoever we want to be...someone nice, someone mean, a killer, a jealous lover, a princess, a prince, a fairy, a gypsy, a witch, a sorcerer...the possibilities are endless!! We change our appearance to make it more believable, you can see it in our eyes and in our body language. The best compliment any actor/dancer can get is "I believed you on stage, you were really feeling that."If I can make someone say that, I've succeeded...that's truly dancing!!

The mask isn't just for dancers or actors. Sometimes people wear a mask everyday because they're afraid of what others think of them. I think oftentimes, regular people are the best actors. The masks are so subtle and well done that it's hard to find it.
