Day 14: Size and Sort

Today was not my favorite work party.  All the costumes used or lent out over the past year are tumbled together in bags and boxes and now have to be sorted, hung or boxed.  Ancient, grimy shirts, dresses, trousers and oddities from decades of musicals are sorted into categories.  Of course, it makes the next stage of locating and assembling this year's costumes much easier.  But it can be filthy work.

Another foray into the prop room yielded more signatures.  One of the students on stage crew pointed out his dad's autograph on the ceiling from three musicals in the 1980's.

Winter swept in over the last two nights and yielded a foot of snow.  We walked, but it was short and brisk.
