The designer seems flabbergasted that we don't normally tech in costume-- the artisitic director, the production manager and the director seem flabbergasted that we would even consider trying to tech in costumes. I don't have enough experience to tell who is craxy-- does anyone know?
My experience is like juliana's. We don't do costumes during the 2 long techs unless there are complicated costume changes. If the costumes affect the way an actor needs to move (shoes, corsets, big dresses, etc.), we usually get costumes (if not the whole thing, then key pieces) well before techs.
We also have costume parades before one of the dress rehearsals where each costume comes out on stage and the lights are set for the scenes that costume appears in so that the lighting designer and costume designer and see how everything looks under the lights.
Illinois just has a high rate of successful prosecution of ex-governors.
Illinois just has a high rate of successful prosecution of ex-governors.
Yeah.
It just proves the system is working....
That's two convicted ex-govs in twenty years, though--rather high rate. (Daniel Walker served two years in federal prison for S&L hijinks in the late 80s.)
Ohio is trying to do Illinois one better by prosecuting a sitting governor.
Please tell me that the Moonie religion is based on a Monty Python sketch. It's the only way to explain comments like:
"After the act of love," read the instructions from the Rev. Moon's conservative Family Federation, "both spouses should wipe their sexual areas with the Holy Handkerchief. Hang the handkerchief[s] to dry naturally and keep them eternally. They must be kept individually labeled and should never be laundered and mixed up."
[eta: It took me until I posted to fully comprehend the "should never be laundered" part of that quote. Now that I have....ew.]
Do Wet Naps count as Holy Handkerchiefs?
