HAIR AND MAKEUP
Do NOT make drastic hair changes prior to the show unless cleared with Ms. Zak!
IMPORTANT NOTES:
• Performers are responsible for doing their own hair and makeup prior to call time. We do not have the space at the Black Box for everyone to get ready at BC.
• Stage lights tend to wash out performers so all performers should wear makeup.
• Wear deodorant! (EVERY performer needs to wear it to tech week and shows!)
• REMEMBER to bring a water bottle.
Bring the following items: Deodorant, makeup wipes, brush/comb, hair products, bobby pins, and makeup (for touch-ups) in a container or bags labeled with first and last name.

On another note, please help supply our Costume Work Room:
The costume teams at BCHS have a work room! The dedicated room gives students the chance to be more involved in the costuming process, learning to repair, alter, create, and maintain costumes.
Please help us to furnish/supply the work room by donating: scissors, sewing notions and extra fabric you or your extended family members no longer need. (cleaning out grandmas sewing room soon - you may not know what that tool is, but chances are we do!)
Donated items may be brought to the costume room during rehearsal, or can be dropped in the BCHS office labeled "Costume Work Room".
Thank you!!
