Costume Parade!

Many of our simpler musicals in the past did not require a dedicated Costume Parade day. But considering the complex nature of The King and I, Mrs. Tutterow and Mrs. McCarty decided it would be fruitful to commit the entire Sunday rehearsal to doing an inventory of what we have and don't have. Keep in mind that every costume shown here is still a work in progress in one way or another. Everything will come together over the next two weeks...it always does!

These dancers will need to concentrate on good posture!

Do you have any patterns for the costumes? We are doing the King and I in May and I am desperate for costumes.
