I performed as Ariel in The Tempest in 2014 for the Appalachian Shakespeare Project at Concord University in Athens, West Virginia. I spoke with the director, Christopher Clay, about the color palate for my character and decided to dye my hair blue, purple, and lavender ombre for the role. I used adhesive rhinestones and face and body makeup for my characters appearance. I did my own hair and makeup for the show. Fun fact, I met my now husband during rehearsals for this production!
