My adopted sister wants to be an actress and she always been fascinated by films that takes place in 1600's or 1800's or those other older days, especially the shakespeare films. And someday she wishes that she could be in those kinds of films, but she's afraid that she wont because she's hispanic, she has dark skin, curly dark hair, she looks 100% latina. and there weren't any hispanic people in those days. but is there makeup that will make her look caucasian or something?

It will be the first full tech rehearsal. Everyone is nervous. The cast members are still occasionally flubbing lines but I know it's mostly nerves and the appalling rehearsal conditions. These guys are great actors and I know what they can do. Question: We have been nominated for the AWARD. (Regional thing, big deal.) I just found out that the judge is going to be there OPENING NIGHT!. Should I tell the cast or not?

Is that a way of helping not become war criminals, or not help those who are, help us get out life of of crime and crooked activities in general? Why not dream up the opposite kinds of stories? Are they not capable? And if they say that the public wants it, are they just followers? By the way the first word of the first show I mentioned above is, en- I-pee. I think the software thought it was one of the words that is not allowed.

I need to come up with an idea for a play for my elementary students to perform in for our end of the year presentation. We have usually done 45-60 minute plays like Snow White, and the Wizard of Oz. However, due to copyrights and low funding, we need to create our own play and music. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I am on my school's makeup crew and i am doing this one guy's makeup. He has acne (and probably uses some kind of acne ointment) so his face his red. But, his neck, arms, hand, etc are not red. What color cake makeup should I use on his face? Should I use a color with a red tint to match his acne face, or a lighter one to cancel out the redness, or a darker one , or one that matches his arm/hands/neck? I am going for a natural, everyday look.

Why in the musical Hairspray is she called Miss Baltimore Crabs?

I was just wondering... why 'Crabs'. I've seen the musical and the new film but i've never seen the old film. Is there something in there that they missed in the newer versions? Or is there another reason? Thanks

I am the theater teacher at a very modest high school in Northern California. For the musical auditions, this is the first time that I'm having students prepare a song to sing. I have a college student willing to be our audition accompanist, but I'm not sure how much to pay her. She's a piano major, no degree, but said she's worked auditions before. She might have her own rate, but I want to be prepared to offer her a price if she (like most college students) says she's not sure.
