@myhairiswaving Interestingly, this is supposed to be 1922. 1940s and '50s men's fashions do not belong in this show. Fashion research would have avoided this.
@RayPointer It's amazing to see the horrific costumes a High School or even college costumer will put on their actors. I swear half of them just go to thrift stores and vintage shops and say "This looks old" and throw it in the bag.
I'm a fashion enthusiast for the 20s-70s so I get erked by little things like that
According to Youtube I hadn't watched this video for a year and it still shocks me how well the designer did
@myhairiswaving I know EXACTLY what you are talking about! I headed costume all throughout HS, and our director was SICK of my nitpickyness when it came to finding the proper designs in the proper period ( She admitted that she barely passed costuming in college) -- that AND quality. I hate it when it looks like everything is halfassesd and vaguely tossed together. And horrible tacky colors. When I watch a show, the costumes are the first thing I criticize.
Take tapdancing lessons. Or watch the videos here on YouTube that can teach you how to tapdance. There are only a few tap numbers in the musical, but if you can tap, then you can learn the other dances (which are somewhat tap-ish, too). And use a song that showcases your high range. Whether you're a bass or an alto, everyone has to sing in their upper register at some point in this show.
Great job! Millie looks like she had so much fun!

you guys had terrific costumes
a lot of people end up with pieces from the forties and some even from the fifties
you guys look like you really researched the time period :)

1. I was talking about how bad some schools were with keeping with the time period. Not how awesome it was that people jump 30 years ahead.
2. "This is 1922!" I would say '22 is closer to early 20s rather than late. Wouldn't you?
