well people, we've returned from Gamarra. YES, we survived... however not with too much success. First of all, a representative from Scenery, the two costume-rs and our director went, so we really couldnt make that much of an advance.....so, we didn't know for sure if we had a budget for costumes so our main goal was scenery with claudia. ok, we asked all over the place, my mom and the Junior Achievement people and they all told us that the best place was..."LAS MALVINAS", we went and it was closed....yup, (however we know it is on Cuadra 6). so next, we walked gamarra 3 times looking for something that we might use....for example we asked for vest or pullovers..and they were 20 soles each, however we found one gallery that could give us the vest for 18 soles (felipe's got the card) and we also asked for gloves (mitones) but ...Felipe had a very good idea, why don't we use "football" gloves, that will make it more of a newton ish, our world more than a paucartambo, however, we couldn't find it. Then, we went to a place where they sell wigs, for 20 soles each. and that was as far as we could do for today!.
Successes of the day:
1) Diego bought 2 great t-shirts.
2)Sandri bought 2 earings.
3) we bought black socks!
4) we've got the special places to go one day and do it fast.
5) we found a GAMARRA version of paucartambo, yes....it follows us!!! we couldn't asked them where they got their costumes, but we saw how they were..more or less imitating the idea of paucartambo, and felipe said "I've seen this the real version, this can't be better". and it kept me thinking, will people think the same of us??? why can we make to make it more interesting!?!?! ...sucks huh?.
So we have a problem, NO BUDGET. and as we talked in the taxi, we kept on thinking what to do.....and we concluded in the following:
a) NOT TO PAY FOR SCENERY because we think costumes is more important.
or
b) buy fabric that can pass as scnery and make our own vests. Just make the outline and cut them and make them
How to solve this problem!?!?! budget...I was forgetting about that little detail. To make a play we need to have a budget, and if the budget doesn't cover all then..what to do?! this is a problem i've never thought of, how does pro solve this?...and how are we going to solve this!??!?! problems..problems.
