Wig Time!

Here are almost all of the wigs
used in the show.
I have used wigs in a few of my shows so I'm not a total novice, but it was slightly overwhelming to do so many wigs for "Farinelli & the King."

 In total I had to find, purchase, and style 10 wigs. Some actors had to wear more than 1 for the show as they were playing different characters or older/younger versions of their character. 

 While it was a lot of unexpected work, I did enjoy working with the wigs. A lot of them just needed to have their curls fixed and re-pinned.

I wish I had taken a wig class or something while in college, it's been a lot of fun learning process, but it'd be nice to have some solid guidance.

Malotke Writes - Updated Website

Guess who got new headshots done? Me! I've been continuing to submit various written pieces (poems, drabbles, flash fiction, short stories, etc.) and have been needing headshots for some of the submissions. Since I have been using my photo from senior year of college (shot for the fashion show program) I had decided that maybe it was time for some new, and way more recent, photos.  Pictured left is one of my favorite photos from the photography session. I've already updated my website using a bunch of the photos and I've sent them off for social media / marketing for upcoming interviews & anthologies that I'm included in.  Here is a link to my writing website: Malotke Writes
