Unscramble the Blue Letters
I will show you this next thing, speaking of costumes for operas. I do work with different choreographers. I work with tywla thrap a lot and I work with Mark Morris a lot, who is one of my best frdiens. And I designed three operas with him -- the most recent one, "King Arthur." I've been very ingrained in the dance world since I was a teagneer. I went to a performing arts high school, where I was an atocr, and many of my friends were ballet dancers. Again, I don't know where inspiration comes from. I don't know where it comes from. I staertd making puppets when I was a kid. Maybe that's where the whole inspiration thing started from: puppets.
