💙 The Importance of Being Earnest 💙
We had fun creating quick change structures & playing with up-cycling & revamping previously loved items from the store in line with a new, stronger green book policy the theatre has adopted.

🪻The Importence of Being Earnest🪻
These fabulous flower inspired designs were made for The Importance of Being Earnest, playing now @nationaltheatre! We had fun creating quick change structures & playing with up-cycling & revamping previously loved items from the store in line with a new, stronger green book policy the theatre has adopted.
I’m sad to miss this one — the colourful, clever & campy design looks incredible & the show is getting great reviews, luckily it is coming to cinemas next years so if you can’t catch it now you can catch it then! Hoorah!

The third and final of the Trickster masks I recently completed working on for The Lion King musical. I already miss seeing these funny little dudes sitting around the workroom 😂
I hope one day to get the opportunity to make the other characters too!

This guy is probably my favourite of the three Trickster masks I made for The Lion King musical. I'm so happy with the final results. They're all just so colourful and fun!
Working on these made me realise it must have been 20 years since I saw the play myself. I should try to visit again sometime soon.

I've been very busy working with @appliedartsuk, and I'm very excited to finally share these Trickster masks I made for The Lion King musical!
I've grown really fond of these odd creatures, I'm actually a little sad to see them go. But I'm even more excited to know that they'll be dancing around on stage very soon ✨️

![[ Throwback ]
"Wow, I've always wanted to cosplay that character. I don't like the way you've made it though.."
They proceeded to tell me exactly what parts of my costume wasn't to their taste and what they would do differently. The fabric was too shiny, the gradient was patchy (my first ever attempt), and the trims were "too much."
This was in 2014. I doubt they gave it a second thought, and I bet they don't remember me or my costume. But remember exactly where and when it was, I remember what they were wearing and how devastated I felt after the initial excitement that I had met someone knew who the obscure character I was cosplaying.
It's pretty sad that someone thought it was okay to go up to a stranger and say the things they said. I never wore that costume again despite having been so proud of what I made. I let them get to me, and I wish I hadn't.
Almost ten years later, I get so many wonderful compliments for my Mollymauk- who is literally filed in the dictionary under "Too Much." My next costume, I have decided to take a lot of artistic liberty and add a thousand extra details to bring it to life.
I embrace being "Too Much" whenever possible. ❤️
It's more fun that way.
