This production is leaning into the whimsy and magic of fairytales and chasing one's dreams and we'd like the hair and makeup to reflect that enchanting and whimsical feeling!
Overall Notes:
-Simple is BETTER! Don't let extravagant styles distract from your costume or your acting. The goal is for YOU to standout, not your hair or makeup :)
-Practicality is important! You don't want anything coming undone after one big dance number!
-Natural makeup that enhances you, not covers you is key!
-Ribbons (not bows), fake flowers, glittery hair spray, and flower crowns are MORE THAN WELCOME! (avoid massive pieces or overly intricate embellishments)
-Photo references will be provided for each character as a generality for what is expected, but they are not references to be directly copied
