Help With A Southern Drawl
Feb 19
2009, 04:56:04 PM
I have been cast as Mrs.Beauregarde in Willy Wonka Jr. and I have been asked to put on a southern accent. I don't know how to do one without sounding over- exaggerated and fake. I'm hoping someone can help me by telling me the right pronounciation, or if someone even knew a text-to-speech thing with accents, that would be great. Thankies.

"Krup You" - West Side Story - Officer Krupke
"Esa pregunta es tricky" - 96000 - In The Heights
As a good conversation starter I usually ask either "Will you join in our crusade?" or "Do you hear the people sing?" and see what they say. : )
When one of my friends is giving themselves a hard time I always say the thing about "Why is it that if some dude walked up to me on the subway platform
and said these things, I’d think he was a mentally ill asshole,

Another Wizard of Oz blooper that happened in the production I was in was that when we were dancing to "Jitterbug", the Scarecrow was supposed to fall back and have the Lion catch him, but the Lion wasn't ready and the Scarecrow fell to the floor in the middle of the dance with a large THUD. They covered it up really well and nobody in the audience seemed to notice it wasn't supposed to happen.

It's not 11:30pm where I am. It's 8:30.
And I actually just found out about it.
They were supposed to surprise us with that song, but I found out from a friend that it was the song we had to sing.

The pillowman - act one
It wasn't the actual play that scared me (Although it made me get pretty creeped out) , but while I was watching it (on the internet) a picture fell off the wall in another room and there was a loud crash and that's what really scared me.
I also am starting to have an irrational fear of pillows... thanks alot Martin McDonagh.

What I have :
facepaint
white shirt
black vest
black pants
bowler hat (although it looks more like a top hat)
bowtie.
any tips?
Especially in the makeup area, I'm kind of lost. I have the general idea it just won't turn out right. I'm also having trouble deciding inbetween bright red, or black lipstick.

She is famous, for one.
and for two, thats why I said you don't hear about many broadway stars going downhill. I was hinting at what you were saying, I'm sorry for the misunderstanding.

Replying to BigFatBlonde,
It seems like everytime you turn on the T.V. or walk by a newspaper or magazine, it's chalk full of stories and pictures of could-have-been role models that have gone downhill. But Patti always manages to keep herself on track. She is my role model because of how she presents herself on stage,how she has worked so hard to get where she is and that she has her own way of doing things.
But I do have to say that you don't hear about many broadway stars
