Phantom of the Opera Inspiration

Some character inspiration for my role in the upcoming Phantom of the Opera....


























Corps de Ballet - a permanent part of the ballet company, often working as the backdrop to the principal dancers, working as one in synchronized movements.  Think all those gorgeous swans in Swan Lake.  And the photo above from Martha Stewart, that I just love totally and screams corps de ballet to me.


























And of course, The Joffrey shows off a perfectly tied pointe shoe in an ad for their upcoming Spring Gala in the CS Men's Book...something I'm aspiring to at every rehearsal.

My First "Album"














On a recent visit home, my grandmother brought the first "album" I had ever created for her.  In all it's cassette tape glory, created and sent by 6th grade Kirsten, it featured solo vocal tracks from Christmas music to classical Latin, piano solos, flute solos, and a card to mail back to join the Kirsten Fan Club.

Who says twelve year olds don't know anything about branding?
