Costume: My response!
these are great Gudrun. I am sure we can use most if not all of these. It may be that some of you discard and take on other costumes. We can cover the cost of any cleaning. Great stuff Gudrun!

Costume?
Here are some things I have (just for every day use...) that could potentially be used if anyone's interested...
Military Jacket (v.Branagh in Hamlet)

It's 35" chest so might fit Kev
* Medieval-Cut Dress, Green/Maroon Liberty Print

Roughly size 10/12 although quite narrow on the shoulders so bosoms may heave in this. Last seen (on Rachel) in Henry the Leper but don't let that put you off...
* Jade Elizabethan-Cut Jacket (looks damn fine with black...)

Front Detail

Back

Back Detail

Roughly size 12
* Tinkerbell Dress (somewhere at my mum's and pre-digital hence the one photo...)

Small size 10
Laura Ashley Victorian Cut Dress - Cream with White Pinstripe

Size 10/12 - can be worn as is and buttoned up, or open over something else. A bit Much Ado, but not very heaving...
* Elizabethan-Cut Ball Gown

Front Bodice Detail

Roughly size 10/12. Fookin' gorgeous, but I wouldn't want any More Than A Woman-esque rolling in cake to go on with it!
The ones marked with a * are left from my mother's time as a designer back-in-the-day, and if they were used in the piece I might like to ask for a contribution towards dry-cleaning them afterwards. And no cake.
If anyone's looking for something specific for their costume please feel free to ask me - I've got loads of random stuff and the biggest collection of sea-sounds...

Karen Carpenter and costume

Close To You Video & Lyrics
(They Long To Be) Close To You by Burt Bacharach and Hal David
Why do birds
Suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me
They long to be
Close to you
Why do stars
Fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me
They long to be
Close to you
On the day that you were born
The angels got together and decided
To create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair
Of gold and starlight in your eyes of blue
That is why all the girls in town
Follow you all around
Just like me
They long to be
Close to you
