Alice, as i recall, none of our lovely ladies are so crude as to sweat.
They only occasionally glisten....

Just want to say to all, true khaki shows sweat. White, black, less so.
Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens. There: balance.

Hi, Joy,
We are really talking about pants for men and pants or leggings (no
feet)
for women, although we'll probably end up saying bring things in more
than
one of the three colors (black, white, khaki) if you wish, (including
skirts
and tights) and we'll see what works/looks the best. I'll find Kathy's
email
showing her modeling fabric pieces, and send it out to all.
Cheers,
Mary

"cute little things" you made (little)bothers me that whatever. It

I go with Jayne! A kind of easy going neutral color scheme that we
don't
have to fuss over. And we can gussy it up with
whatever we can find.
And
layer it (although we will die of the heat) so
that we can go from
villain
(all black) to virgin (all white) to who knows
what (shades of
beige!)
That sounds like fun to me!
Love, Terry

Black/white/khaki sounds good to me as a backdrop for adornments.
But instead of tights or leggings and a top in one color, my vote
would be for
ANY combination of the three colors and INCLUDE
skirts and pants and
t-shirts,
etc. For instance, a black skirt paired with a
white top; khaki pants
and
black
t-shirt; a white dress; black pants and black top; whatever. Seems
like most
of
us could pull our costumes together from basics in our own closets and
then
find
the adornments when we get there. That would make it easy.
Mary is right, there was no formal discussion of costumes. The idea
for the
fabric swatches came from an informal side
discussion Kathy and I had.
I think
Kathy
might have talked with a few of the committee members about it? I'm
bringing the fabric whether we use it or not. But I think some of it
will be
great - easy capes, tablecloths, headscarves,
etc. And NO SEWING!
To recap: Any combination of white, black, khaki. Pants, skirts,
t-shirts,
other
tops, dresses, etc. That's my vote. But I'll go along with the crowd!
Jayne

Dear Ancianos,
The Oracle's Vestal Virgins are now asking for a vote!
We
wanted just pants for men and pants or leggings for women, an> must time
as
possible to work on scenes, thus avoiding choosing a
costume and
then altering, washing, ironing, hemming, taping
... it also grew from
the
notion we all 21 seemed to like that we might all
be on stage as much
as
possible, to serve whatever purpose might be
needed: crowd, servants,
nobles,
becoming a... door, etc. This seemed an exciting
idea, but we are not
saying
we'll do that, just reminding everyone of the
idea.
Choosing owe you for those tights? (Well, you may want to use them,
after
all.)
We've realized the committee has had weeks to mull over the idea of
some
uniformity underlying choices of accessories and
props, but all of us
have not
discussed it, so let's do so!
We want to play. We don't want to worry about costumes!!!
