Post Awesome "Macavity" (audio only w/pics).
This production was at a dinner theatre in Claremont, CA back in October. Yeah, I hate myself for missing it because it looked friggin' amazing (though the tickets were kind of pricey at $45-$70).

Listen to this audio clip, these two ROCK (this person keeps uploading audio clips from the show, recently uploaded this one) One of the best English-speaking Bombalurinas I've heard. The pictures are pretty too. I love the Macavity costume/makeup. Just wanted to share with you guys.

I've seen and heard these, wish I could get the whole show from him. If I was still living in So Cal I would have gone down to see it. They wanted to rent some of my costumes, but they only wanted parts and I am only renting the full set, and they wanted a cheap price, so--no go. They used the FCLO costumes which have been beaten up and reused so many times. I think the whole set that I worked on in 2006 is now entirely replaced. But they do sound great on his recordings.

I know what you mean, from what I could tell from the audio and interview with the director, they added a lot of little tweaks to the show. Would've been a blast to see just for that alone.

Didn't Musical Theatre West rent from Fullerton? The Grizabella costume looks completely different. As do some of the wigs.

MTW rented from my company, Stage West Costumes. FCLO is an older set that I helped to create back in 2006.
