Ah! The Sheep!

ok, i could make this really short and not explain anything, but that would be no fun! so this summer i worked on an opera called la belle helene. there were many bizarre dream sequences and one of them involved the 'erotic sheep dance' there was nothing erotic about the sheep dance at all, except that they danced, really cutely, next to a sleeping couple. anyway, somehow the dance was dubbed erotic and it became a favorite moment among our electrics crew. one guy in particular really liked it, and for his gag gift, and a few other gag gifts, we aquired some beanie baby sheep, and sewed them in some, well, suggestive positions. note photo below of beanie baby sheep.

later in the summer, the lightboard op, lesley, came racing to the electrics shop to grab me. she had fixed the headphones of a wardrobe person, and in return, the wardrobe girl, kelly, was going to let us try on the sheep costumes. the costumes were really fabulous. . . but incredibly hot. and well, once we had them on, can you blame us?

the "yo sheep" sheep. . .



just like the beanie sheep. . .



hmm. . . well, you get it. . . .



but, of course, it didn't stop there. after looking, sharing, and howling over our pictures we realized that having the sheep in the wardrobe room really wasn't aesthetically appealing. so a few of us decided to work with some photoshoping, and here are a couple of the results.

the sheep, in their natural habitat. . .



and the sheep on the stravinsky terrace at the opera. . . don't you think this would make a great cover shot for next year's season calandar?! :)




that's all for now . . . .. . muhahahahahahahahahahaha
