So of course i said YES....when and where. so i went to the salon where they did the hair & makeup for the show, then rushed home and fixed my makeup because i am not a blonde or a brunette.... and only certain colors of red and pink look good on me (i let the gal know that, but i don't think she cared, i even brought my own just in case) and i lacquered my hair down a bit more so that it would say in place.
the show went AWESOME! they had me go out first since rockabilly/pinup is my "thang" and because i am a "performer" meaning i know how to work the stage :) and i did. after the show i had tons of people from the audience saying that i was the best, they loved my dress and the purse i made (that i whipped up for the show) and even some of the models said that i rocked the stage and they were glad i went out first.
after the show i mingled with the crowd for a bit in the dress, belt & petty coat designed by miss Ronnie Ryno then changed back into my clothes and had a drink with some friends and headed home, because the next day would be a long one!!!
The next day was the Pasties & Paddles Production of "Fantasy's Fetishes & Fairytales" a Burlesque & Caberet show featuring fairytales, myths, childhood story book characters and more. i was Pippi Longstocking in my solo act, the cobblers wife in the elves & the shoemaker, bubble gum in willy wonka & a monster/lion in where the wild things are. (pictures to come)
it was a great show. i personally did not feel as prepared as i did the last show being that i started preparing 2 weeks before the performance with costuming and making my props. my huny was nice enough to help me paint cardboard and make supports for Pippi's horse Alfonzo.
here is the first of many pics to come.....and yes that is me on the left in a pink wig
