I can't remember if I mentioned this, but a couple weeks ago I was given the chance to take a trip to New York with the theater department to do Costume related things - and I just got the schedule an hour ago. We are going to see a couple exhibits at the Fashion Institute of Technology (one of the world famous schools for Fashion Design - that's where they sometimes film Project Runway), visit the Conde Nast building to meet with an alumna who works at a famous fashion magazine, stop at Parsons-Meares (where they build most of the costumes for Broadway productions), then have dinner on the way down to the theater where we will see Peter and the Starcatcher. A very busy day.
I looked into the show we will be seeing and it appears to be a play about what happened to Peter Pan before he met Wendy. Sounds really interesting. During my search, I also discovered that a couple of the cast members were important people - one actor was nominated for multiple awards while playing the original part of Emmett in Legally Blonde the Musical, another was in the original cast of Next to Normal and one actress originated the role of Olive Ostrovsky in The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, so it should be a good show!
I'll post again once I get back with plenty of photos of my adventures! And hopefully by then my next set of embroidery stuff will have arrived!
