Halloween Portrait of Josephine Baker and Dorothy Dandridge by Douglas Levere

This weekend Torn Space Theatre Company hosted a Halloween fundraising gala to support the production of avant-garde stage drama here in Buffalo, New York.  That's me on the right dressed as Josephine Baker with the incomparable Dorothy Dandridge (left).  In addition to her clutch "Dorothy" is also clasping a bottle of vodka and a bottle of pills.  Dangerous? Not anymore.  Necessary? Absolutely.  I'm holding a stogie, 'cause every vamp needs one.

Not Just a Gathering of Gobblins...
Guests were asked to come dressed as famous people who had passed to "the other side" in addition to the look we were expected to come in character and tell their stories.  I don't like to brag but I think that we had the most interesting costumes there and we spent not a cent on them... that's what I call making good with what you got.
The super cool photography portraits were done by Mr. Douglas Levere  you can view his other wcostumesork by visiting his site at:  http://www.douglaslevere.com/
