A time-lapse behind-the-scenes video showing the quick change into and out of the Bustopher Jones character for the musical CATS at the Lewis Family Playhouse in Rancho Cucamonga, CA. Video taken March 2016
This isn't a quick change. This is a life time. I once had to change a French inspector into an English gentlemen in one minute. Not of stage, not, in the wings. On stage behind a wall.
Hi! James started the show as a basic grey kitty. He then changed into Bustopher Jones, then back to the basic grey look. At intermission he changed into Old Gus/Growltiger, and then for end of show, back to the basic grey kitty. Whew! I'll be posting a vid for the Old Gus change in the near future :)
