Halloween...?

It's kind o0f early to talk about Halloween but...Did anyone ever dress up as there favorite character from a B'Way show for Halloween before? I don't dress up anymore but today I was at the store and I saw Roxie Hart & Billy Flynn costumes!

3 years in a row 15 or more of us had the EXACT rent costumes...went to the show on halloween and all won lotto..it was rather pathetic and now it's a trend there but, it was kind of cool at age 13 and 14 ...now i look back and im disgusted lol

Can I dress like ROD and have John Tartaglia manipulate me?

I can handle anything you thow at me.

and John is worth a little pain anyway!

Of course! Every year I try to do my favorite theatre diva of the momment. Some of the best costumes I've made were Norma Desmond & Hedwig. A few years ago, my lover and I were Daisy and Violet from Side Show. Last year, we did Edna & Tracy from Hairspray. This year, we're doing Roxie & Velma, and have been busy for the past few months making the dresses and long coats from the film's finale..... i'm seeing fringe and bugle-beads in my sleep!!!!

One year, I went as a "Phantom" from RHS. I wore the show shirt, did my hair really wild, and did wild makeup.

If I go out to a party after WICKED I'm going as Princess Amneris in her "Strongest Suit" scene. I have the dress, the shoes...And a wig of long curly hair. Fun times.

this year, im either going as Audrey and my friend danny is going to be seymour and we're gonna go to the parade or i will be a cheesegrater from B&TB

I was teaching at another school a few years ago and a group of teachers and students decided to dress up as characters from PETER PAN. A very petite young man (I think he was a Senior) was Peter, I was Cap't Hook, a very large math teacher was Smee, students were Wendy, Michael and John--and a very large Hispanic student was Tinkerbell (she had a ball walking around all day in a tutu and spreading pixie dust all over the place--it was a riot!) "Peter" and I staged a duel in one of the stairwells during luch period.

Anyhow, I'd gone the full route, renting a costume and a black Restoration wig to go with it. I also made myself up with arched eybrows and a vile beauty mark. In short, I really looked like the character. I decided to wear the costume on the drive home and show my neighbors how nicely it turned out. Well, of course, my car broke down on the Meadowbrook Parkway and I had to get out and call for help. No one seemed willing to aid Cap't Hook!--although at that point I had taken the hook off because it was difficult to drive with it. Ultimately my car was towed and I was taken to a car rental shop, where the clerk who took care of me was dressed as a pirate.

Ah...Halloween!
