I think the most fun part for them in this one is that they get to wear actual costumes in this one. Usually they are playing teenagers, so they wear regular street clothes. Otherwise our uniform is blue jeans and their black long sleeved theatre shirts. This play is a fairy tale, and we have an evil witch villain, a princess, a knight and medieval townspeople. However, this is more challenging for me, having to come up with, for the most part, two sets of medieval costuming. Our two knights are vastly different sizes, and the two mayors of the town are different genders, so it will be a challenge. The two witches and the two princesses are close in size, so that helps as theirs are the most specialized of costumes. Pictured is the princess dress.

Youth Play Rehearsal
Our youth met for their weekly rehearsal for the new diabetes play this afternoon. They are split into two teams so that when we travel, we won't be taking the same group of kids out of school time and time again. This is being problematic, though as I have not had one full team here for the past 2 rehearsals, just a mix and match of the teams. Today neither of the actors playing one of the main characters was here, but we had two of the hero and two of the narrator in attendance. So frustrating.
