Tammys Tantalizing Tattoo

For the last two or three months Tana and I have been involved in a theatrical production that benefits Rescate the EMT and Emergency Ambulance service down here. It is a privately funded service and receives no government support. All its operating income comes from donations and fundraisers like this show. The nearest good hospital is about 65 miles away....if it wasn't for Rescate being on call 24-7, it could be disastrous for many people who get sick, hurt, or have a medical crisis!!! Many people came together and donated their time, money, and skills to ensure that this show would be a success. It's now over....and it was a terrific success....... what follows is a little bit of insight into our production of....


Tammy's Tantalizing Tactile Tattoo
or
You Don't Know Jack

Let the show begin...............
The setting is in the gold fields of 1800's Alaska at the 
Greasy Grizzly Saloon ...  


Tana is Fanny the bar maid who runs the Greasy Grizzly...Leonard the Mountie is the hero Dudley Duzrite who is looking for the villain Juneau Jack..


Fanny sings like a boid...........


I asked the producer if we could borrow that red wig for a couple days....she hadn't got back to us yet

I'm a grizzled old gold prospector who hangs at the Greasy Grizzly

Some friends who came to the show.....


The stage.........


Backstage with Sheriee, the props Nazi......


Yes, we had to do make up!! Don on the left was the Emcee and Jay on the right was a gold miner who shoots the bartender...Spike Desoda...


Yours truly with make up artist Carol who also played a bar room floozie.....


Les on the left is Keen Eye the stagecoach driver and Helen is his saloon floozie.....in real life they are together


 Backstage with Tana and Leslie, the Vamp.....


Willie the excellent sound effects guy....


Andrew, Spike Desoda the bartender and Debbie his real life GF and my floozie in the play....the guy in the background with the beard is Chris the villain...Juneau Jack....the girl in the red polka dot skirt is Candy who plays Brandy the town drunk....


Tryin' on Keen Eyes hat.....


Debbie....my bar room floozie.....




My interpretation of the famous Jeff Goldblum scene from the movie The Fly....remember he steps out of the teleporter machine and he morphed with a fly inside? and emerges with a flys head on his body...and he starts crying to anyone... "help me..help me...help me" Well, thats the scene....I guess you had to be there. Oh BTW my fly head is actually the fake butt that Tana wore in the play.


That's it folks....there were a lot more people involved than I was able to  show here.  I just never seemed to have my camera around when I needed it...this will give you an idea though....a good time was had by all.

Take care my friends until next time.....its gonna be awesome!!!
Peace to you all
