id you hear that? That huge sigh of relief? Oh nothing, it’s just me finally seeing the light at the end of this Summer of Hell tunnel. If you read last month’s column, you know June wasn’t all that cute for ya girl. I wish I could say July was a little better, BUT ALAS DEAR READER, ’twas not. Womp, womp.
But that’s not what this column is about. This month, I’ve decided to flex some of those designer/actor/creator/…gulp *artist* skills you’ve been hearing me blab about for the past six months.
As I look ahead to the next two months, I’m gearing up to return to the stage as Lady Capulet in Romeo & Juliet. I’ve never, ever done R&J, so to say this is a dream show–well, it is. Lady C is one badass bird, y’all. And because I can’t just not go a little over the top, I played with a mood board.

We’ll just have to wait and see, ’cause that’s showbiz, kid.
