Past glories

[pensnest]

A few years ago, I was a Kit Kat girl in 'Cabaret'. Most fun I've ever had in all the shows I've done, and the production was wonderful. vaudevilles said she wished she could have seen me in it, so...





I'm the one on the right.

Heeeee, I recognised your profile! You're looking very debonair and decadent :-)

[pensnest]

I could have wished for more debonair underwear to be prancing about in, but it was a lot of fun.

[turloughishere.livejournal.com]

Well, the underwear is a bit too... matronly perhaps :-)

[pensnest]

Yeah... :-( Our director didn't want us to look glamorous at all, which is a shame because I'd have been far more fabulous in a nice corset. If I ever get the chance to direct Cabaret, I'll get all the girls to decide which bits of their body they most like, so they can show that off, and help them to disguise the bits they want hidden.

That's a fabulous idea! Most people have something they're self-concious about and which makes them reluctant to prance about in minimal clothing. Letting them hide that while showing off something else ought to make a director's work so much easier!

You look so awesome! Seriously, all suave and stuff. X3

[pensnest]

Hee! It doesn't happen often - but I'm a closet exhibitionist, and need the excuse of a stage role.

[runzu.livejournal.com]

Oh really? I don't meet many exhibitionists. ^__^

I didn't know that you used to be into like, plays and stage. I mean, I've noticed that you go to them a lot, but I didn't get any indication that you've actually performed.

This is so cool. :D

[pensnest]

I still perform - although come to think of it, I haven't been on stage since, hmm, March last year, because I directed the most recent one, and the one before that was a pantomime, which doesn't interest me. I'm a member of an amateur theatre company, we have our own theatre, and we do (usually) two musical shows, two plays, and one youth production every year. It is so much fun.

[runzu.livejournal.com]

Oh, you must have pictures of your performances! :D I would be very interested in seeing them actually and reading more about it in your posts. :)

Of course, I hope I'm not asking too much. ^^;

[pensnest]

The funny thing is, I don't have a lot of photos of my performances. In the past few years I've tended not to order any, as I don't do anything with them. The pic in this icon, though, is me as 'Bella Spewack' in our production of 'Red Hot and Cole' a couple of years ago.

LOL Don't like pictures of yourself? :P

Nice! :) I really like the way you look in it. XD *goes to wiki 'Red Hot and Cole'* :D

[ariadnem.livejournal.com]

You look good!

[pensnest]

*grins* Thanks!

[vaudevilles.livejournal.com]

Could you hear my wolf whistle from the UK? You own that look so well!

[pensnest]

Hee. I was so delighted when our director pointed at the two of us and said we were to be the lesbians. And the other four KK Girls all looked enormously relieved that she hadn't chosen them!

[turps33.livejournal.com]

That's a fabulous picture of you!

[pensnest]

It is rather fun, isn't it!

[nopseud]

That's a really good picture. You should have it enlarged and framed!

[pensnest]

I don't know if I've got a proper print - this is actually scanned from a copy I printed off years ago on the back of something else, but I adjusted a bit in Photoshop to get rid of the letters that were showing through! Hmm. I should look.
