~Your theatre teacher "absolutely LOVES your long hair! You can do anything with it!" And of course, they do. And of course, you don't mind.
~All feeling in your scalp is gone from all the teasing, detangling, bleaching, dying, shaving and otherwise abusing you've had to withstand over the number of years.
~You basically know what you're going to look like when you're 80, you've got down stage makeup so well.
~Your idea of fun is to give yourself vampire bite marks and walk around in public, just to see how many double takes you get.
~Your best friends are Ben Nye and Samuel French.
~It's not uncommon for decommissioned props, scraps of wood and discarded fabric to find its way back to your home.

sad_loved_girl ~Your favorite holiday is the day after Hallowe'en because you can go to the costume stores and stock up on reduced price makeup, liquid latex, fake blood, jewelry, and what's left of the costumes. _-indigo_blast-_ ~you're used to straight guys putting on makeup Ou Shinsa Otokomae You know you're a theatre geek when... You correct people's pronunciation of Greek words from classical productions. You can tell someone the origin of the term Scene sad_loved_girl ~Your best friends are Ben Nye and Samuel French. While many were true, these resonated the most. A few more to add: -when you can see a show and realize that almost everyone in the cast of 53 is wearing a costume piece you built -when you're studying Romeo and Juliet in ninth grade, and everyone wants to work with you because you get all the dirty jokes -(to echo Ou Shinsa) when you see a Gaian user with the name hamartia and have to PM them and congratulate them on their choice -when every embarrassing moment story you have begins, "Well, I was in this show, and..." -when you have both cut your hair (over 9 inches!) and grown it out for different parts -when you call your technical director "Uncle Mike" -when you've been acting alongside another person so long that he has played both your father and your son

You know you're a theatre geek if...
- You were really pissed when Gwen Stefani remade "If I Were a Rich Man"
- Someone calls you a drama queen and you laugh hysterically and nod
- You want to strangle your English teacher because after studying Pygmalion, she showed the film My Fair Lady and fast-forwarded through all the songs
- You don't get any papers handed back in school (when you eventually find them, you realize you have written your current characters name at the top instead of your real name, so the teacher didn't know who to give it to)

sad_loved_girl Marie-leah When being costumed up for a role (espically in my case a victorian role ... usually a whore...) is no different to the way you usually dress When you offer to buy your costume after a production when you realise you probably had a costume at home which could have suited the role better When your most prized possesion is memrobela from a show you were in Marie, where do you find reasonably priced victorian-style clothing? Do you sew them or do you thrift like a madwoman? I've tried both and neither have really been working to my advantage. Reveal your secrets, woman! eek LOL Should I tell? I find them in all sorts of strange places! (Including some fasion stores beleive it or not) If I get really stuck there is a shop where I live called the closet. it sells a mixture of genuin vintage clothing and stage clothing. I dont buy to much from there though... I have made my own stuff in the past but a the moment I dont have time.

When more people call you by the name of a part you've played than by your real name. (It's been seven years since I was in Little Women, and half the people I know still call me Marmee)
When "a group of thespians masticating" just doesn't sound that dirty anymore.

*excuse me if any of these are repeats*
-If you're prone to know everyones lines, parts in singing, and blocking.
-If you have to list the shows you've done perodically or else you'll miss one
-If you have split your friends into theatre friends and school friends (I refer to them that way to one another)
-If your high school drama teacher knew you before you were in high school because you hung around the theatre so often
-If you know almost every theatre term without having to think at all
-If you have a separate playlist just for Broadway songs, and it exceeds the length of the regular one (By I think 7 hours)
-If you have a shirt from a show for each day of the week (I have enough shirts and hoodies from shows to make up a wardrobe!)
-If you've ever appeared on the stage in clothes of your own
-If you've ever been squeezed into a costume or have uttered the phrase "Who needs to breathe anyways?/Breathing is SO overrated!" (That's the situation with one of my current costumes in the Music Man)
-If you've tried to get a group of people together to randomly burst out singing in the halls and dnacing (C'mon, it'd be great!!)
-If you spent more time at the community theatre then at your own house since it was located at your high school's freshman campus and you were a freshman.
-If you considered families you've had in plays to still be your families.
-...even if they don't remember when they were related to you.
-If you'd rather go be on Broadway RIGHT NOW then finish high school
-If everyone knows that happens to be your greatest ambition in life and they know you're damn well determined to get there!!
