One hour in the life of Gaby

I didn't particularly want to share these pictures, but my boyfriend did put them on his "family blog", so let's just post them !

They are pictures of our fabulous and unique (believe me!) interpretation of the play "8 Femmes" in front of a real audience (!!) one wednesday night in June...
(cf. http://sawatika.blogspot.com/2006/05/back-to-blogland.html)

The scene takes place in the 1950's and my part was Gaby (Catherine Deneuve, at the top, in the middle on the movie poster picture)... I'm supposed to be a bourgeoise in her 50's... always smoking a cigarette !

Rehearsing was really great fun and so was that night, even if we did forget a couple of lines (okay - more than a couple !)
Of course it was not perfect, we are just amateur actors and did not have much time to learn the text by heart... so we did improvise a lot !
but the important thing is : we enjoyed it and so did the audience !!!






PS : no comment about the dress.. it was fashionable in the 1950's !!
