Phantom tickets

We got free tickets for Phantom of the Opera because they needed a couple of costume items.

Denise Wheeler called, they needed a white negligee and 8 dresses for the Don Juan rehearsal number. She also took a coat with cape for Hannibal to wear just before he is murdered. They put my name in the program! YES!

We loved the show, excellent costumes, fun scenery, and powerful voices!

There was a full house and a standing ovation.

Denise says the tickets are all sold out for the rest of the week.

My negligee made the front page of the Observer on Tuesday night. ta dah!

Here is an article from the EOU website.

Golden Outfits

I have had a request for gold outfits to match a gold mask so here is my collection. The gold dancer is a peasant top with skirt with elastic waist and black coin vest.

This is a gold Egyptian dress, sz XL.

The golden pantsuit is very nice with black sequins down one side, padded shoulders and black pants.

The golden robe could be for a King or queen. We used it in Aladdin for the King, sz med, it looks like a design from India, it has side slits.
