Drama Camp - Joseph of Arimathea

Last week was drama camp...it was awesome! The week went by way too fast! The play was on Joseph of Arimathea, and a pretty cool one, I thought. I was a messenger, we were kind of like a narrator. I didn't have a lot of lines, but I really liked it because I got to be throughout the whole play. I also really enjoyed the team. I promised pictures so here are a few.

Making the body of Jesus

The first day of drama camp I was only able to make it just before lunch. So they had already picked those who would work in costumes. I was a little disappointing but didn't think much about it. At the end of the day when we were just leaving we (mom and I) were talking to a girl I've known for a while, and she said, "they were wondering if you could help them in costumes." I couldn't help smiling as I said, "yes". So, I was able to work in costumes ( mostly hemming with a few other projects).
Allie (in the picture above) and I were assigned to make two "priest bibs" (similar to the one in the picture).

Here I am putting "pancake" all over the face and neck. This is dark orangy-skin colored make up that helps us to not look so pale with the lights on us.

Here on are pictures of some of the scenes that Mom was able to take after the performance. This is the scene of Mary and Josephs of Nazereth betrothal feast. Left to right (their Bible names) Joseph of Arimathea (his back anyway), Heli (Mary's father), Ruth (Mary's mother), Mary and Joseph of Nazareth.

I am not sure exactly what this scene was since I was not in it and I got all the temple/priests/Sanhedrin scenes mixed up.
