\"\"\u201cWill I get to have big boobs?\u201d\u00a0 I asked the director.\u00a0 There was a long pause.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWhat?\u201d He wasn\u2019t sure what to say.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cY\u2019know\u2026 Bazungas! Hooters!\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOkay, yeah, Joko, I think we can manage to get you some very large breast forms.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAllrighty then.\u00a0 I\u2019ll take it.\u00a0 You\u2019ve got your Frosine.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This was the phone conversation I just concluded with director of the Theatre Arts Students Association\u2019s production of Moliere\u2019s \u201cThe Miser\u201d<\/strong><\/em>read synopsis here<\/a>).\u00a0 I had just accepted the role of Frosine, an over-the-top matchmaker who gets to be one of comic keystones of this hilarious 400 year-old comedy.\u00a0 She is also, yeah\u2026 a woman.<\/span><\/span> (<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"I was a little surprised when I was asked to read the role during auditions, but I went ahead and gave it my all, put on my best Monty Pythonesque shrill voice, and in all modesty, made it very funny.\u00a0 It\u2019s a funny role to start with; having it being done by a 6\u20190\u201d somewhat pudgy man in drag\u2026 yeah\u2026 I can see why the director chose me.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

That’s a Frosine over there on the right….—>
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It was about a year and a half ago that I started getting interested in doing community theatre again after a 20 year hiatus, and it will be my fifth role overall.\u00a0 It’s my first in drag.\u00a0 Well, there was that one strange party back in my undergraduate college, but that was a long time ago… <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Two more pictures of Frosine I’ve found…<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The performances won\u2019t be until June, but if you\u2019re anywhere near the Puget Sound, I hope to see you there!
\n<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

So I would end this blog with one of those cliche blog-ending-questions created to beg for comments, but “Have you ever gone out in public in drag?” or “Do you have really big boobs?” are the only two I can think of.
