Job stuff
I have never been part of such a rewarding production as this one. I also haven't felt this exhausted in a long time. Having not been an integral part of full fledged productions in over a year I sort of forgot how hellish tech weeks can be.

Plans for world domination going swimmingly
I am pleased and proud and somewhat amused to announce that I have just landed my first assistant costume design gig. It seems Pope Benedict XVI is coming to the US. Whilst here he is doing a mass in Yankee Stadium of all places. In typical American fashion our country has taken this opportunity to make a pious event into something on the scale ( Read more... ) -

NY Times
It is pretty awesome when a costume you have made and your boss are in the New York Times. Especially when that costume is ass padding for the upcoming production of Cry Baby.http://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2008/03/11/theater/
