I was the first man to put on a dress and play it straight. That was something very fresh. Still is.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I liked to play dress-up.
I used to love to play dress-up, where you get your mother's or your grandmother's dresses and high heels.
I was a bit of a show-off in school and loved playing dress-up, and my passion for it just grew as I got older.
The interesting thing about doing a play is to find a way to make it fresh and do it as though you were doing it for the first time.
I still have the dress I wore on the first date with my husband, which was more than 66 years ago. I still have it, and it still fits.
I didn't really play dress up when I was a kid, and I'm really T-shirt and jeans-y.
I have a collection of impractical vintage dresses and jackets. I guess I never grew out of the 'playing dress up' faze. It's actually a bit of a problem.
My mom used to make my costumes when I was little; she sews a lot. One year, I was a bride and I had a big wedding dress and a bouquet. Another year I was a medieval princess with a long teal dress and a veil. It was a little extravagant, but it was cute!
First play I ever did was 'Footloose.' I played the part of Willard when I was 16. I think I wore my drama teacher's jeans and her belt - that's how small I was. I know a lot of Willard's back story from the musical that's not explored in the film. Like he's got this whole relationship with his mama, and he sings this song 'Mama Says.'
As a little girl I loved the thought of playing dress-up and getting ready.
