Those gaudy colors are intentional as they were filming in black and white film which captures colors differently. Hues don't read true-to-form. That's why 1966's WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF? was filmed in black & white: because of the make-up being used on Elizabeth Taylor to transform her (then in her 30s) into a 50 plus year old. In color she looked monstrous. Same applies to 1959's SOME LIKE IT HOT - the make-up on both Jack Lemmon and Tony Curtis was horrible in color but leveled out in black & white. If you ever see rare color photos of the sets from black & white films, the colors were horrendous as they were color-organized to read certain shades in black & white. Same with costumes: brown reads red in black & white, etc.
i agree with whoever said it's not Madame Rose. you don't need 4 months to prepare for some local community theater production of a crappy musical.
Jesus Christ, if she wants to prepare for an audition that's four months away, then just let her do her thing. What the hell difference does it make? I admire her determination.
Here's a good audition song for Wednesday!
And here's the instrumental for you, in case you go with this one and want to rehearse it!!!
Break a leg!
Brody Fosse, yes I am aware of that. Most face make-up had a greenish cast to them because it made the black and white flesh tones look a lot better. It is just startling to see the actual set in the colors they used.
