For the pre-show, the nurses (all the female cast members) will be welcoming and socializing with the audience members. In order to get into character and have some more contextual knowledge of the play, I'm researching some of the beauty tips and tricks of the 1940s women (and men!) in a time of scarcity and rationing. These ladies did not just forget about their appearances, they did the best with what they had!
Maggie this was perfect, exactly what the cast needed to inspire them, give them the vocabulary required for pre production and the entrance of the audience.
