We were talking about hair, makeup and
costume, the costume was a given
that was there
but it was a very
unusual costume because it was highly
flammable so I couldn't actually walk
anywhere where I might go anywhere near
anybody who was smoking, so I always had
to walk with two people, one in front of
me one behind me and one each side so my
activities during the day were very very
limited we mostly confined to leaning on
a wall because I wasn't allowed to sit
down either and it was made out of the
fabric that ballet dancers used to wear
in the 19th century when they regularly
used to go up in flames because they
were standing too near the footlights
so that was my costume and then they
said "so what about your wig" and suddenly
I thought I heard myself saying
"I don't think I should have a hair at all"
and Dave said "I'd thought of that but I
didn't think you'd like it maybe" I said
"no I think it ..." I had no idea
what it would look like but I said
"no I'd like to try it without hair" and
that's how that look came about and I
think it was very successful it worked
really well
