I Look Forward to Wearing My Renaissance Gown Tonight

Our local community theatre is putting on its first really lavish production, and tickets have been sold out for weeks because everyone knows how much work is going into this effort. It has taken three seamstresses volunteering their time to get the renaissance costume gowns made and fitted to the proper actresses. The props are pretty elaborate too. As an actress, I find all this extra effort being put into the scenery and costumes to be really helpful in stepping into my role. I actually feel like a renaissance woman when I have my gown on, hair styled, and make-up just right. I look forward to our first production tonight.
