I dressed up as Thenardier in a show I did...not Les Mis...it was a revue
Glad to see you are all talkin 'bout Halloween!
I thought this was a site about people who dresss up as characters just for the heck of it.
I was at a friend's house one day and I saw a Red Hello Dolly Dress in his closet.
Hmmmm???
For Halloween i did Fantine... It was amazing i used ripped up curtains for a skirt, a black wifebeater with a white corset over top, a black boa, a blonde 30's wig that was messed up and a hat from my production of les mis.....

The cutest example I've seen was at the recent Oklahoma revival.
A little boy, probably about 3 or 4, was dressed in cowboy gear like Curly.
His mom stood and held him up during the bows and Curly (Stephen R. Buntrock) noticed him and was grinning from ear to ear and waving to him.
So cute.
What..no BKLYN costumes?

Private message to DebbieDowner (no one else should read this!)
WHEN, pray tell, are you going to dress as your favorite character?
I mean it would be okay to dress up as a green witch at a masquerade party, but I think it would be a bit much if you did this to go grocery shopping or to attend someone's wake.
Yay!
I see people all the time dressed like characters from Brooklyn...
THEY'RE called bums, or homeless people if you're PC..:)
Yes, I did dress up as Elphaba for Halloween and I am making one of her outfits for a sewing project for 4-H
I dressed as Eponine one year...I want to be Elphaba this year...
You guys are so ignorant...I'm not even a BKLYN fan...but I have a lot of respect for the costume designers.
Yes. We must respect the BKLYN comstumes designers for their superior efforts. Or else, they would not have been nominated for a Tony.
Hmm..what's that?
I walked by the line going into Phantom Saturday night and I saw 2 people dressed up, one like the phantom and one like Christine. They were going to see the show that night.

when i saw rocky horror show on broadway my cousins and i dressed up as different characters...i went as Columbia. we were a hit with the actors lol.
People are dressing up going to see Phantom?
Is this the new Cats?
i did Christine Daae once. and i half-assed dressing like the Altar Boyz; Abraham and Luke...LOL
ShuQ--GEEz I was TOTALLY joking! I think the costumes in Brooklyn rock..it was just an easy joke and I went for it!
I have tremendous respect for costume designers. I have an AMAZING one at my school and I practically come to tears everytime I see one of his new sketches or pull out and orinal costume he did for some show before I was there. They are a talent I do not understand and never will.
So NO i was NOT insulting BKLYN!

For Halloween, 1996, I went as the mansion from Sunset Blvd. It was amazing, but due to technical difficulties, I had to shut myself down and cancel trick or treating.
Well, Halloween isn't big over here and my mum doesn't really like us to trick or treat so this year for my 16th birthday I decided to have a dress up party and I was Elphaba(strictly speaking I was the Wicked Witch of the West, but you know), while 3 of my friends came as Riff-Raff, Magenta and Frank'n'Furter from Rocky Horror(the most disturbing thing I have ever seen) and another came as the Phantom
Well, not exactly my favorite character, but when I went to see Les Mis this past January I dressed up as Eponine. When I went to see Cats the June before that I went as Rumpelteazer. Got a lot of weird stares that night... can't say I didn't deserve them, though.
Also, not really a costume, but when I saw Hairspray I went in 60s dress. Along the same vein, when I saw De-Lovely I went in 30s dress.
I think its probably clear from my pictures but heres a few more :)
Me As Elphaba at Halloween :)
This Halloween, I'm going as Mimi. Blue skin-tight pants and all. Let's hope I can pull it off =8->. And in November, my friends and I are going to the RENT movie as our fave characters, again, me as Mimi. My friend Aubrey and I declared one Monday as "Marky Monday" and wore striped sweaters and scarfs to celebrate.
P.S. GirlforTartaglia, your Sweet 16 sounds like fun, can I go? I wanna come as Daryl Coopersmith and run around, waving a Playboy and using phrases like, "How could a righteous babe like you be lonely?" and "He could get infected, Jesus! Tetanus, lockjaw, rabies, scabies, emphysema!" and that old favorite, "Ya think?". Maybe I'll throw in some Far From Home to scare others, "You scared now?" and "Don't worry, Jolene, I'll protect you." =8->
