I have been neglecting my blog for the past month due to the craziness that belongs to "musical season." Our annual after school production begins with rehearsals in January and continues through the end of April. It is a highlight of our school year and brings our school community together with great pride. This year, our show was Peter Pan, Jr. We love the quality and resources provided by the Broadway Jr. Show Kits. My co-director is an amazing seamstress and can be credited with much of the sewing that is done. We also had wonderful parents who help pull the show together. Check out some pictures from the show. I hope you enjoy them. I promise to return with more blogging and classroom ideas soon! The children in the nursery and Peter entering the window.

This does NOT include shipping time. If during Halloween season, I will always let you know when the expected ship date is. I normally sew 300+ costumes during Halloween season, so it's crazy! But I have NEVER let a single customer down regarding shipping dates for costumes! If you order your Halloween costume after August, rush sewing fees will start to be applied, starting at $15.00 - $25.00. Please order early for Halloween to avoid any fees! ***PLEASE NOTE: Why rush sewing fees? I have three little children that need their mommy, and I only sew during naps and night time, so my time is worth a lot! During Halloween season, I sew at night from about 8PM-2AM in the mornings. With my 3 little ones to take care of during the day, I will ask for rush sewing fees if ordering after for Halloween AFTER August. I hope all you mommies understand! If your item weighs less than 1 pound, I use First Class Mail unless you choose Priority at check out. If it weighs more than 1 pound, I always use Priority Mail, which is an insured, tracked USPS service, and normally takes 2-4 days, or less, depending upon where you live. If you need the item rushed, please message me before you purchase to make sure that I can accommodate your request. For items that need rush shipping, I charge a rush-fee of $12.50 - $25.00, depending on how fast you need it, but your rush must be approved first. I always need to check my sewing calendar first. Thanks! For customers outside the USA, I use USPS First Class Mail, which is not insured, and normally takes 2-3 weeks to deliver. ********************************************** COSTUME CARE: ********************************************** I suggest hand-washing or spot-washing for all of my costumes. Please do not treat my costumes like regular clothes. I use unconventional materials on a lot of my costumes like wire, hot glue, glitter, moldable plastic, etc. ********************************************** EXTRA: ********************************************** Each costume is individually sewn with artistry and love. All products are made in a smoke-free and pet-free environment. Please note that EACH costume is handmade by me to order (this includes going to the fabric store, sketching the pattern, cutting, sewing, finishing, etc). Due to the amount of time that goes into each costume, I do not accept returns unless there is a flaw. I am human! Please contact me within 2 days of receiving your item to discuss return details/exchanges. However, please note that after sewing over 1,000+ costumes, I've only experienced two noted flaws! Due to the nature of this product, costumes are not sleeping garments. They are to be worn with care and supervision to prevent strangulation and/or suffocation! *********************************************** PERSONAL SHOP POLICIES: ********************************************** 1. I LOVE what I do. 2. I do NOT use patterns. Each costume that I make is hand-drafted and cut. So each costume will look slightly different! And, therefore, I do not have any patterns or instructions to sell. 3. I reserve the right to switch out ANY fabric or trim if it is no longer in stock or no longer made. I try MY BEST to make the costume as it is shown in the picture. 4. I cannot be held responsible for any shipping errors. Once it is scanned in by the postal system, I no longer hold any responsibility. 5. I have FOUR small children and a traveling husband, so if my order load is full and you need a costume within a strict time period, I will charge an accommodation fee depending on the timeline and costume type. 6. If you purchase a costume, I assume you read this, and agree! 7. If ordering a custom costume (one that I have never made before), I work in the moment. I do not draft before I start cutting and sewing. I try my best to describe beforehand what I am going to try to do, but sometimes in the moment a certain cut, fabric, or trim works better than I originally thought. If you look at all of my work, you can gather what my aesthetic as a designer is. I will normally kindly turn down a custom request if there are too many parameters or strict guidelines as it will normally block my own creativity. 7. Choose kindness.

With the recent casting announcements for NBC's Peter Pan Live, and the news that Finding Neverland will be coming to Broadway this season, I thought looking at Peter Pan would be a great Throwback Thursday topic! Peter Pan (the play) debuted on Broadway in November of 1905. It starred Maude Adams as Peter. And she repeated her performance in 3 subsequent revivals. The Original Broadway Peter Pan - Maude Adams The play was revived again in 1928, starring Eva Le Gallienne. But the last time it was revived - in late 1950-51 - was perhaps its most famous run beyond its debut. It starred Jean Arthur as Peter and the legendary Boris Karloff as Captain Hook. Jean Arthur as Peter and Boris Karloff as Captain Hook Peter Pan (the musical) made its debut in 1954 starring Broadway icon Mary Martin as Peter and Cyril Ritchard as Captain Hook. It ran an underwhelming 152 performances. But after it aired several times in later years, the show became a classic. I love the score, don't you? Mary Martin and Cyril Ritchard Jerome Robbins and Mary Martin In 1979, the now legendary Sandy Duncan-George Rose revival took Broadway by storm. It ran more than 3 times longer than the original. And Cathy Rigby has played The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up in four 1990's revivals of the show! (And she's toured the hell out of it, too.) Sandy Duncan and George Rose Cathy Rigby Peter, Wendy and the Lost Boys have also appeared on Broadway in Jerome Robbins' Broadway (with Tony-nominee Charlotte d'Amboise as Peter), and most recently in the award-winning play, Peter and the Starcatcher. I believe that Adam Chanler-Berat was the first boy to play the boy! With all of the upcoming Pan-mania, can a revival of the musical or play be far behind? That would be something to crow about! And finally, I join the world in mourning one of its eternal boys, the bangarang Pan, Robin Williams. RIP Jeff 5.220
