I thought I’d upload this collage of-the scene of the crime where yesterday’s upload took place and add in an additional “crime”.
The image to the right is me, dressed as Marty Maraschino, nervously waiting in the change rooms before going out for our first performance.
The second is the Kissing Scene between Marty and Vince Fontaine who judges the dance contest. Marty had a penchant for older men and Vince Fontaine is clearly a creep who targets younger women.
"Vince: Hi. (removes shades) I'm Vince Fontaine. Hey, do your folks know I come into your room every night?
Marty felt uncomfortable.
Vince: Over KZAZ, that is.
She then chuckled, getting the joke"
As a 15 y.o. this was the scene I was most worried about and where another "crime" was committed. During this scene, Vince was supposed to put his hand over my mouth and kiss his own hand. However, on the last night of our performance, unbeknown to me, he had made a bet with his friends that he would not use his hand and kiss me on the mouth. Which he did, much to my horror. Nothing I could do about it on stage in front of a live audience.
I have some recollection of slapping him across the face at one point. I then told him that I should receive any proceeds he made from the bet.
The letter behind is a letter I wrote on stage while lying on the bed as Sandy sings “Hopelessly Devoted to you”
Clearly these posts are just for me and my devoted Flickr family and I hope you don’t mind me posting these recollections.
I will resume normal programming now.
