Mwah!

Last night's show was the better of the two, although the audience on opening night was more responsive. I'm in plague limbo, where I'm sick, then ok, then sick, then ok again. I think I've fought it off. I think. In any case, I wasn't running a fever during the performance, although I was when I taught dance class yesterday morning.

Considering how almost every performer was as sick as a dog, we were freaking amazing, if I do say so, myself. This includes singers who can barely talk without having coughing fits. Somehow, all of our singers, who are all REALLY sick, managed to sing without losing their voices or having coughing jags. I'm amazed. I don't think the audience suspected we're all infected with burlesque plague.

Here's my make-up job, post-show last night.



I'm so peopled out now. Just want to sleep. I think I'll grab a nap while I can.

Danse du Jour

OMG. This is the most amazing thing I'll see this month. I don't know who the dancer is. Her dance isn't even all that good. But damn! I want to do this dance, albeit with a fake snake. Poor snake. But wow. EPIC!

Yeah. I like it that much.
