All students are required to wear stage make-up. The following items
are required:
➢ Foundation
➢ Blush (boys should be a neutral color, girls can be
slightly pink)
➢ Lipstick (boys should be a brown/neutral, girls can
be a little more pink)
➢ Eyeliner – black or brown
You may also send your student with neutral colored eye shadow or
mascara. Mrs. Fawcett’s daughter will be bringing some cosmetologists
to help with make up application on the days of the play.
All costumes must be in school for all dress rehearsals and should be
shown to Ms. Knab before hand. We want students to be united visually
through the use of color. All of the buckets clothing needs to be drab,
dirty, and worn-out in shades of gray, khaki, light brown, or beige.
Other kids need to wear brightly colored clothing. In addition to the
attached list, all golden ticket winners need some sort of coat that
goes with your character.
Sketches of costumes are (or will be shortly) available on the web
site. I’ve also included some links for inspiration. As much as
possible, the costumes can be pieced together with ready bought items
and added to.
Please let us know if you have any questions or need any assistance.
Thanks!

House dress idea:

Oompa-Loompas: denim overalls, striped long sleeve t-shirts, knee highs
(stripped if possible), sneakers, we would like green hair and orange
faces – all of the Oompa-Loompas need to look alike
Squirrels: gray or brown sweatsuits turned inside out so they’re fuzzy
(please cut out the tags), ears –can be made out of paper and attached
to a head band, furry and bushy tail – I think this would work best
with cardboard cut out and covered in fake fur and then tied around the
waist and chest but it needs to be light weight
Choco-Vision Room: (The Teavees, Wonka, Charlie, Grandpa Joe, and
Oompa-Loompas) White jumpsuits- they need to all look alike and be easy
on and off- there are some Elvis ones which you could remove the
decorations of or we could use scrubs or track suits, we will provide
goggles
