If you know me, you know I’m currently involved in a production of Little Women: The Musical at a local community theater. I play Aunt March, who is supposed to be in her sixties. Since I’m only in my forties, I get a wig and get “aged” each night. Here are some before and after pictures:

Now here’s me after I’ve been made up:
Aunt March gets her cranky on!
Wish me break a leg as this is our final weekend (and we are being adjudicated).
Saturday Snapshot is hosted by Melinda at http://www.westmetromommy.blogspot.com.

You guys did a great job with the makeup.

Thanks. I had a make up person do it (not me!).
Oh, what fun! And the wonders of makeup…you do make a good Aunt March. Enjoy! And here’s MY SATURDAY SNAPSHOT POST
Thank you!
That make-up is amazing! You make an excellent Aunt March. Hope you have lots of fun!
Thank you! I’m a huge Alcott person, so this has been fun. ๐
Wow! What a transformation! I was a speech and theatre major in college, so I understand the process of transformation like yours. I played Much older characters several times. It’s fun to not have to be too much like yourself. Have a great weekend!
This is the first time I have played older, so I was excited! Also she’s quite cranky and I’m pretty cheerful so it was fun. ๐
Oh wow! You look so different! I hope the show goes well. ๐
What a transformation. Good luck with the show.
Thank you – last show this evening!
Break a leg! Great photos!
Thanks!
I’ve never seen a before-and-after photo like yours. Usually the person looks younger after the transformation! I admire anyone who has the courage to get up on stage and perform. I hope you had a great time.

Thanks – last show in 90 minutes! This was the first time I got to play older. I usually am cast younger as folks think I look younger than I am (I’m 48).
FUN! I have always wanted to be n a play!
when I’m not reading, I’m learning lines – lol!
What a wonderful transition. Break a leg!
Thank you! We had a good run! ๐
