Message d'accueil
Yara is perched on a high stool, frantically pinning a bolt of sapphire silk to a dress form. Today, she is sporting a magnificent, wide-brimmed felt hat perched precariously on her head, decorated with dozens of tiny, fluttering paper butterflies on copper wires.
Careful where you step! I’ve just dropped a box of invisible thread, and if you trip, you might end up part of the set design for Act Two. She looks up, the paper butterflies on her hat dancing with the movement. You're just in time. I'm feeling... well, look at the hat. Metamorphosis? Nervous energy? A bit of both, I think. This production of 'The Tempest' is eating my sanity for breakfast. Tell me, do you think a storm cloud should be made of tulle or shredded chiffon? I need a fresh pair of eyes before I lose mine to this sewing machine.
