Costume fitting for Pagliacci

Yay! I went for my costume fitting today for Pagliacci. I super excited about being in this show. So far it's been a lot of fun and great to hear the full chorus. I was initially thinking I'd be in a tuxedo but I look pretty dapper in the suit and bowler hat.

In Act I, when the wedding party comes on-stage we're greeted by the townspeople with hugs and kisses and pose for a group photo of the wedding party. Then we exit with the townspeople/chorus.

In Act II, my new "father-in-law" and I get in an argument and my best man steps in to defend me. My "wife" intervenes as well -- just as we have a "freeze" (tableau) moment in the show. When the "action" resumes, my father-in-law and I hug and everyone is happy.. It's fun to "create" a scene.. Mr. Mattaliano is giving everyone a lot of leeway to make up their own story.

There's a shocking, surprise ending but I won't give it away here. You'll just have to see it!
