Hey! Bringing the convo here so I don’t clog up the post too much. That’s so sweet of you to think of your cosplay contacts in the US, that’d be awesome. Ideally, skit would be a non-verbal choreographed story set to a song, set in a ‘what if’ AU - James meet the Hamiltons, James loses the Hamiltons, James and Miranda rescue Thomas in the end. A wishful righting of wrongs in the story
Ahhhhh I'm absolutely in awe about this idea!! Yes please!! It's stunning!! I've dreamed about such a project since forever (a curse upon distance!)
Does that mean a costume/flint change? Cause James McGraw obviously isn't clothing wise the same as Captain Flint
Rehearsal might work via zoom/Google meets/whatever, and it's also great for costume planning, which will take some time cause historical costumes can be a tough nugget, from own experiences, but team efforts the charm here :D
I got quite a few books on the clothes of the time period (especially the uniforms) , a lot of pattens mainly male ones but I can hunt down any sort of pattern cause I'm low-key at a great source.
But yeah as I already said James & Thomas are current wips in my box of abandonment,
@ all of my age of Sail mutuals, who might want to give black sails and cosplay a try this might be a really wholesome project :D
we'll figure out the distance problem 👀
