Hope Bird: Hair and Makeup

Parenting. Yes that's a dirty diaper, and yes this did give me life.

Wow, this is heavy. I've grown and changed in ways that were unimaginable for me before starting this contract. I'm not the same person I was when I started. To all the wonderful people I met through this experience and to the life long friendships we've forged, thank you. I will never forget this. Goodbye Hill Valley. Where we're going, we don't need roads.

Man, I haven't been this sad about a closing in a long time. And I'm sure it's because I don't get to be a part of it. So if you're not aware after I went on maternity leave I found out was closing. I have had so many ups and downs with this company and I have really grown. I've even grown my family with these wacky people. This picture definitely sums up the goofy love I have for everyone involved. More emotions to come, but for now I'd just like to say I miss my BTTF family.

Happy Birthday to this man right here. Seeing you become a Dad to our little dude has been one of the biggest pleasures of my life. Your sense of humor and caring nature has been my rock through this new journey. I'm so excited to celebrate you. Welcome to your new incarnation. I love you!!

We are thrilled to announce the debut of our latest cast member!
Our little Broadway Baby, playing the role of Josiah “Jed” Jack Bird-Cortes, stepped out onto the stage at 2:17am on Sunday, November 3rd. He has since continued to stretch his wings, and his talents as he now explores the immense, challenging, but nevertheless exciting world before him.
We hope you will join us in our incredible joy that has been gifted to us. We know he will continue to be a star in this crazy production of life. We are so happy to have such an amazing little guy in our lives and cannot wait to watch him grow, and re-explore the world with him!

I have the best family ever! My mom and husband worked together to fly my mom out to see me for the weekend. It was so nice to see her. I feel so loved.

8 people, 3 minutes, it's changes like this that remind me why I'm good at what I do. None of them have to worry about their cues because I have their backs.

What does your work space look like at the end of the night? This is mine. I love what I do, but that being said it's frustrating to take care of and maintain all of these wigs at the end of the night in 45 minutes with only 4 people. It's hard to keep up the quality and integrity that audiences expect of a Broadway show. That being said did you know that the hair and makeup artists of Broadway have been in negotiations for a raise for almost a year? Why isn't our work valued?

Having so much fun playing in these waves!

This picture gives me the warm fuzzies! I love this human. This has been an amazing adventure.

Yesterday was a blur. I had so much fun! More Tony's photos to come but for now, enjoy and I living our best. Thanks for the picture!

As the kids say, we got lit last night.
