So have been attending a local drama club for last 6 months and only done a couple of very small parts till I apply and get offered the lead part in a sort of coming to age play I would say.
Anyway I play the role of a star struck 17 year old who dreams of being a you tube or fashion model, but her long suffering parents want her out of bed to get a real job.
Anyway just read script a few days ago so here is how it goes. At the start I jump out of bed, and race to the door on hearing the postman knock as i am hoping for good news. The rest of the play then centres in the living room (about an hour long).
I am therefore in my pyjamas/nightwear for the duration of the play which I was not expecting as I thought i might get some glam outfits.😢 The play centres around my parents giving me advice, me trying to persuade them all will go well and the careers advisor turning up. All this time I do not dare leave the living room as the letter from the postman remains on the table as I am scared to open it or leave it for my parents to see.
Anyway I feel slightly nervous but not too bad, but the main thing is what sort of nightwear should I have on bearing in mind that is what I will be wearing for the whole play but want to look slightly glam and really want to look good. My drama teacher suggests silk pyjama top with shorts or silk nightdress down to my knees but is happy to leave it with me as have known each other a long time. I already have silk pyjama shorts and top so may go with this although i normally wear a robe and slippers when i get up but seeing as I am trying to get to the postman first this has been ruled out. so please let me know what you think will look best (pyjamas or nightdress) and also barefeet or short socks? I am 19 years old and 5 foot 9 slim figure.
Does not sound a big deal but really want to look good.
