WEIRD DOLL WEDNESDAY, PART 260

The season 7 finale of Game of Thrones is on Sunday. Here's my tribute to the trailer.

 Hanging around the dragonpit:

"Should have blown this dump up, too. How dare they make me, Queen Cersei, first of her name etc, ect, wait"

"Chill out, Sis. They brought a present (damn, it better not be that dragon)"

 The Dragon Has Three Heads, I mean, Jon Snow Starke Tragaryen, AKA The King in The North, Daenerys Targaryen, Stormborn, Breaker of Chains, ect, ect, ect and Tyrion Lannister, Hand of The Queen.

"We brought you a gift from beyond the wall"

 "Ewe, it stinks! I don't believe in grumkins, snarks or whatever this is!"

 "And I brought Drogon"

 Ser Bronn of the Blackwater:" Dude, I told ya, my loyalty ends at dragons. I'm on the next boat to Essos"

Meanwhile, Beyond The Wall: 1 down and 2 to go. bwahahaha!

WEIRD DOLL WEDNESDAY, PART 259

Nope, nope nothing to see here.

Just of trio of weird dolls hanging out. Last month I ask the Doctor to clear off the dinner room table so I could have room to do the flower project. This is what he did with these little sweeties. That clown one is winking at us!

And now, Game of Thrones theatre................................

 My name is Tormund. Tormund Gaintsbane. I'm a Free Folk from beyond the wall. My life was going good, until she walked into it.

 She's big and blond and carries a big sword. It was love at first sight. Her name's Brienne. 

Hold your horses, Gingerbread! I'm a maiden and a maiden I'll stay! Be off to Eastwatch-By-The-Sea!

But I love you!!!!!!!!!

Yo, Brienne! I'm back.

Ok, my future as a playwrite needs some work.

 The second show was Forever Plaid. Which is about a singing group that comes back after being killed in a car accident in the early 1960's. I know, the "feel good" show. It's a juke box musical,which is a show with a very thin plot that has a ton of oldies.  It only have  a cast of 4, plus 2 musicians. Can you say "The easy show"? Andrew Poston, Olin Davidson, Imari Thompson and Steven Bidwell.

A show like Shrek has a major make-up challenge: The actor has to wear a rubber headpiece, a nose, green make-up, over sized rubber hands and a fat suit. There's a company that  makes the headpieces, hands and ears. 

 Here's the finished look. Alexander Mendoza and Erika Moore, make-up artist.

 Here's what Alexander looks like in My Fair Lady, where he played Freddy Eynsford-Hill. Quit a difference.

 After before and after. Shrek wasn't the only one that worn the make-up. You can see Papa Shrek behind Erika, and Mama Shrek, Fiona,and Baby Shrek also wore the make-up. They got spandex hoods with the ears attached instead of the head piece. They had to change to other characters during the show.

 

 After show meet and greet with a group of happy children.

Three Little Pigs just hanging around in the hall. Cal Bumgardner, Brandon Chandler, Terrance Searcy.

 

 All dressed up for the Embassy Ball from My Fair Lady. Meredith Morse, Terrence Seacry and Alexandria Joy.

 

A couple of swells hanging around waiting for the show. Neal Mayer and Alexander Mendoza (both Actors Equity)  ready to go on in My Fair Lady.

Hope you enjoyed the post!
