In response to a great question by @etchif (I hope I’m doing this correctly again—bear with me still learning tumblr, probably will never learn on my phone, trying though?)

ANSWER:

Okay LISTEN HERE YOU, while for this production a strict NO ONE GETS MORE NOTICEABLE DICKS, I can confirm that a dear friend I will NEVER name (and no one will ever guess, don’t try, seriously, even tourmates were STUNNED and if it was anyone except me would think it was BS, I’m no snitch) tried to gift me his padded Tugger dance belts from US Tour V that all Tugger actors (except one I also will not name because not sure his fiancé wants that going around) were given/made/constructed and was legitimately baffled as to why I was not interested in his dancebelts as I hadn’t done my first pro show then/was a superfan still/sort of not sure how close friends I was with everyone.

“But they’re clean. I’d never give you anything not-washed.”

Bless him so much. He could not see the comparison of like used underwear sales or anything and thought, “well superfan, cats collector… I have something no one else has!!!”

As for why I didn’t take it and sell it, I was not exploiting a friend, ever. Especially one who genuinely was thinking, “what could I give Mia besides luggage tags?” That’d have been wrong. It also had his name sewn into it (same as all actors) for their unders/washing.

Please no jumping on an actor for being gross, btw. The intent was SO kind although… oh no! Lol!

And again I’m not sharing which actor did NOT have a padded one because of his fiancé. I’m not sure they’d actually care but rather safe than sorry.

THE MORE YOU KNOW (even if you don’t want to).

"I shouldn't have agreed on this climbing exercise," he mouthed from the middle of the place. It wasn't much of an effort, but he was so thoughtful about what to wear that he didn't actually think how would it look like from the bottom. His partner next to him, bis cheeks rosened like flowers, "Everyone is literally staring," Chase added as he looked down from the corner of his eyes, awar that the leggings he was wearing were marking his rear and genitalia way too much for his own good. "Should've used a dancebelt at least...."

[oldbaton]

also. they did not give him a cup or a dancebelt huh

Also last night I watched that footage from cats London closing night and holy shit could John partridge move?!?!?! I like spoke to the screen. Wow.

20 Why Am I Afraid of Love? A movement piece with text from Eugene O’Neill, dir by Pete Guither and choreographed by Laurie Merriman. So since I was in Bloomington Normal for the summer, and I was only doing one show, the opportunity came up to audition for this piece. Dance, movement set to text from Eugene O’Neill plays. Along with projections on bodies. I hadn’t had to move/dance since the tap number in Oklahoma four years earlier, so quite frankly, I didn’t like my chances, but somehow got cast anyway. Once again, if anyone had told me when my school year ended in May, that by the end of the summer, I would be wearing a dance belt - only - and reciting Eugene O’Neill poetry in the ISU art gallery, I would have been concerned for their health. But I’ve discovered the big changes come quickly and unexpectedly. Sadly, I have no photos from this process (or as I said earlier, this summer) but you can check out Pete’s photography work at http://thelivingcanvas.com (nsfw). The other thing I remember about this process was at the end, Laurie the choreographer, said (jokingly) “I love actors, you tell them to do something and they try it. Dancers would have said no to half that stuff.” #retrospective #whyamiafraidoflove #peteguither #lauriemerriman #eugeneoneill #isuartgallery #dancebelt #1991 #isu #isutheatre #redbirdsflyinghigh (at Illinois State University) https://www.instagram.com/p/B4hjPk4JYeZ/?igshid=wcxah1kkkgkt

Suncoast Broadway CATS update 2/17

There was a great comment by @lie-in-a-bureau-drawer , so I hope it's okay that I post it here since I've got some info and comments! (I still don't get tumblr and I keep forgetting how it works/etiquette but I'm trying!)

I never would want anyone to ever strain to put themselves in a financial situation ever for any project I do, or anything in general, but especially me. This is something very personal as in 2016, I was about to live in my car until two amazing friends took me into their home. What was meant to be two weeks turned into six months, which I can never financially repay but I promised to repay it forward however I can. Since we don't have money to pay it forward, that's where on other social media platforms I signal boost, and also where I'm absolutely happy to share info and help when I can. I totally can understand the disappointment of wanting to go somewhere, and it's incredibly touching and means a ton to me (you have no idea) for that sort of support. So thank you, from the bottom of my (supposed to be) frigid heart.

For anyone thinking of or planning to attend, David and I will be there for the shows on Feb 1st and both shows on the 2nd--our flight home is the 3rd (missing that show and the rest of the run). This is pretty standard for costume designers, sometimes we don't get to go at all (aka Wichita with their full department already!). I'd feel bad if someone only came to try to meet us and we weren't there so I wanted to give those dates but the show will run until, I believe, April 7th. There is accessible seating and accommodation.

I'd call the theatre to double-check (as a courtesy) but already in many production meetings I brought up superfans in costume and said there's a good chance that'll happen. They seemed really excited by the idea. So if you like going to shows in costume, this one should be very friendly to it and there will be more interaction than usual due to dinner theatre. I can't say much more than that but there was a very specific reason why we were hired (well, several... but something really stood out).

Let's be honest, this is the one y'all care about: YES, there WILL be pictures and (hopefully) video! And I'm pretty sure people who come to the show will be able to take pics/vid on their phones and probably with performers but I'm not 100% positive there--I will get confirmation. Once opening happens, I will share at least one special costume design I made. There will be one special performer who will greet every table in a very special costume as the host/ess. Who will it be? Who... will it be..? (Spoiler: It's not Macavity. WHEN WILL PEOPLE LEARN HE JUST WANTS TO DO SOMETHING AND IS SUFFERING THE WORST MIDDLE CHILD SYNDROME EVER?)

Additional fun info: On Tuesday (maybe Wed) we'll be teaching the make up classes. We had to improvise with some different products, still Mehron base but also some snazzaroo for detailing and some powder and eyeshadow. I don't believe I'll be allowed to share video of these classes (there will be video) because make up classes usually are emotional the first two days, then by day three everything's fine. It's a very emotional process and I'd love to share how I teach but I also need to respect the privacy of the cast in case there are tears.

Kind Suggestion: If you do go to the show, please tip kindly. As this is nonequity, the actors are responsible for providing their own shoes (they will need to be replaced during the run), undergarments, make up (first initial batch on the theatre), other things. We did everything we could to help them, but I know with undergarments and shoes, especially shoes, some actors are really struggling, and if they dance but also tap, and it seems like one actor will cover three tracks... it's very hard. Just a very kind thing to do/consider. We had to talk with a few about whether they could do just one dancebelt and basically the, "well, yes, you CAN... but for twodoshays, you probably don't want to. If not an option, these are things you can do to help keep yourself dry, prevent bacterial infection and odor, and prevent chafing." Also added like a 4-page skincare routine that I stressed was optional but what I personally do/like in case anyone wants to take care of their skin--if anyone wants the routine, I can share it here but it's seriously excessive.

I'm irrationally terrified of flying, so here's hoping that Monday is very smooth with no sudden squalls or anything. I'm really going to miss my floofs but my mom and her BF will take excellent care of them! Currently I'm resting although I should be packing because my immune system gave out and I'm taking as much stuff as I can to knock whatever this is out of my system.

👫 (GoT verse)

👫 (FFXV verse)

👫 (Modern verse)

Send a 👫and I’ll write four headcanons I have about our muse’s relationship

GoT

Lysander took one look at Ravus and just knew he had to have him. It was perhaps lust at first sight but getting to know Ravus made him feel otherwise.

Lysander will always trust Ravus' judgement above any other advisor. If Ravus says no then no it will stay.

Ravus calms his rage. A single touch could send the dragon fire in his blood back. He hates it but at the same time it's often needed as Lysander is brash and spontaneous.

He loves it when Ravus speaks to him in Tenebraean, it turns him on like nothing else. Ravus could just repeat a recipe in his mother tongue and it'd drive Lysander crazy with need.

FFXV

They shared their first kiss together in Zoldara Henge days before a fancy gala in order to 'practice' as Ravus claimed.

Lysander has been in love with Ravus since his early teen years. Prior to that he'd always viewed Ravus as his best friend but once the teen years hit he was smitten with the prince and had to hide it because he was afraid Ravus would dislike him or find it odd.

They need each other. Despite their difference in personalities they compliment one another and seem to understand each other. Sometimes just a touch can speak far more volumes to one another than simple words.

Lysander hate's baths but will join Ravus whenever he's in the bath because he just needs to be close to him and near him.

Modern

He totally thought Ravus was a stuck up snob when he first met him but it didn't stop him from oogling him in nothing but the dancebelt the first time they met.

Lysander has never been in love until him and Ravus got together. It made him want to go to rehab and better himself.

Despite Ravus' cool stoic exterior Lysander knows he's not a total frigid bitch and he does everything he can to get him to laugh because he thinks his smile and laugh are the most attractive things.

Sex with Ravus is probably the best sex Lysander's ever had so he's very needy but is also very self conscious because Ravus is way hotter than he is and so he's always a little taken a back that Ravus would even want to be with him when he could be with like a hot ballarino or something

Clint uses boxers and briefs and while you can see him in lingerie you’re rarely see it on a regular day. Because he thinks that’s for sexy moments. However, you can see him in dancebelts because of his job.
