Glitter - I still hate it.

I've always thought theaters need commercial kitchen exhaust hoods in the makeup rooms and shop to deal with aerosol products.

My costume shop in college had one.

Glitter, hands down. That or the fake snow.

I work a tour of The Nutcracker every year and have gotten the fake snow cleanup down to an art.

Glitter, the only good way I've found to get rid of it is to paint over it.

"Glitter--the herpes of theatre."

One can treat the symptoms, but can never cure the disease; it will always come back.

Oh, and something to casually mention very loudly next time the girls bust out the glitter? Glitter on stage reads as sweat from the audience.* So they don't look pretty and sparkly, they look slimy and sweaty.

Stealing this one next time a recital comes through!
