The Postmortem Look

It's been so fun to work on this period piece by Ken Ludwig! The 1920's is one of the most exciting eras to portray!

We've had so much fun getting the look right for this show. Some of our actresses are in the hair and makeup chair for over an hour to achieve the look!

Denise's hair is painstakingly waved, curled and sewn into the style. That's right, sewn! And the effect is great! She looks like she stepped out of a 1920s salon, on her way to meet Mary Pickford for lunch.

Sabine and Laura both don wigs to complete their transformations. Laura's blunt bob and bangs are as 'striking' as her character is, and Sabine's finger-waved salt and pepper wig lends an air of class to her spot-on portrayal of the doting Aunt Lily.

Rachel's hair takes a more relaxed route, as she's playing a free-spirited medium with blindingly good looks, and a penchant for daring little black dresses....

Let's not forget the gentlemen! Sleek hair and beautifully cut suits bring our gentlemen into the 1920s. Cravats, smoking jackets, and a tux with tails... and maybe a disguise or two...

We're on at 7.30pm tonight, 2pm tomorrow, and 7.30pm again from April 24th-April 27th.
