I asked Kyle Barisich what his favorite fan encounter has been so far, and he said it was seeing your Raoul cosplay! He couldn't stop talking about how much it looked like his stage costume. Sorry if this is weird, I just really wanted to tell you

Ahhh!! Thank you!!! I admit we nerded out a little seeing each other. It was certainly a blast to see his reaction to what is really such a fun cosplay for me to do. Such a nice guy. That’s so amazing to hear and not weird at all. I’m so thankful to you for letting me know!

“Curtain Up on Cosplay” Panel

BroadwayCon - January 28, 2017 Jacob K. Javits Convention Center, New York City

Panelists: Phantom on a Budget Viscountess Magic Cat Jenny Enchanted Sea Studio InkedAlchemist

BroadwayCon invited me to host a panel entirely dedicated to celebrating cosplay in the Broadway community.  I was so fortunate to share the stage with some incredibly accomplished cosplayers, and overall perfect human beings who I am lucky enough to also call my friends as well as colleagues.  We spoke to a nearly full capacity room packed with diverse and wonderfully creative cosplays.  We shared past/future projects and cosplay anecdotes, but most importantly, we discussed inclusiveness and support for one another in the cosplay community.

It was truly an honor and my extreme privilege to be up there in front of that crowd of cosplayers and theatre lovers.  Many thanks to @bwaycon for the opportunity to speak and for embracing cosplay as a part of their convention.  Many thanks also to those who attended and celebrated cosplay with us.  It made me so happy to see so many people come out to talk about our passion and to support one another.  You all truly embodied the vital fact that cosplay is for everyone.
