As Promised

    "hey there, hi there, ho there, you're as welcome as can be..."  who else has the old Mickey Mouse Club theme song running through their head this morning??   I must put on some music to drum this out!
    As promised, here are some photos of Arabian Nights.  I did not take these photos - they are better "show shots" than costume shots, but you et an idea of the simple lines and relaxed styles of the costumes.  This was a big show, but I love shopping gorgeous fabrics - linens, silks, brocades in various fibers.    The students did a wonderful job - really committing to this show and making it their own

  3. @ Lisa and Robb. The audience was really receptive to it. We ended it with sirens and search lights and bomb noises which confused some, but really made a huge impact on others.
