A Guy's Perspective on Make-up

       Hey all you readers this is Thespian and it's the morning before the opening night of our first play this year. Looking back on all the rehearsals the one thing I can remember the most is the make-up. Boy, was it awful.                              

       Although I was really into theatre back in middle school we never all that good and make-up wasn't all that intense. Now that I have come to LASA the Alley Cat Players have kicked it up a notch. Already being a guy and having a permanent mental handicap when it comes to makeup, they tell as a beast person ,my role, I would have to wear full body make-up and put it on myself!

       At first it looked awful, like someone had just thrown mud all over me, but as time went by it started to look more and more beastly. This was good, however after the rehearsals, when it was time to take it off, was a whole other matter. I take an hour long shower every night and I still have make-up all over. It's awful. I've given up all together on trying to get it all off until the show is over. So I can painfully say my first experience with make-up has not been a good one. - Thespian
