    This video gave me 2 major realizations:
    1. Her whole body isn’t painted, it’s just a suit (BTW that suit is GENIUS. The hem of the top part looking like the chain for the necklace instead is SO SMART)
    2. Delia and Miss Argentina are played by the same person?! How long have I not connected the voices?! HELLO???

    • @LucasRLAlves
      @LucasRLAlves Před 4 lety +203

      That's always a smart solution on the seams, covering with some object so It doesn't show. On Hadestown, Hades has a tattoo of a wall pattern on his arm, which is just a sleeve, and It just so happens that in that same arm he has a watch, to sneakily hide the seam.

      They do this for Elphaba too! There’s no way that Elphaba could be painted fully green every night, especially with her costume changes. They do definitely paint her face and hands, but the rest of her skin is mostly a suit.

  • @sarahweldon8189
    @sarahweldon8189 Před 4 lety +225

    I would bet that the Argentina makeup is "normal" makeup, and meanwhile, the stuff she keeps on (the eyes and brows) would be alcohol-based makeup. A normal remover cant remove alcohol-based stuff.
    Just my 2 cents of how I've seen similar things done before in my own theatre! But, I'll ask Matt DeCarlo, the PSM, who teaches at my school, the next time I see him.

    I was Sharpay in my school’s musical a couple of years back, and I had a good handful of quick changes, as Sharpay’s style is an important part of her character...none of them were this insane, but it was still so crazy to run off and have to really quickly and completely change right behind the curtain!!

    That’s the thing I admire most about Broadway quick changes. It literally is a village effort.

    I'm so glad this video was made I was wondering how it was done. So it's mostly a body suit and just face makeup

    So if you watch it on .25 speed it's essentially real time, might want to update the description though. lol
