The Pink Insider has been busy investigating alternative informal performance gear, and thinks he has struck gold with this one. After all, not everyone wants to wear feathers (or loin cloths). And how do you come up with an outfit which suits the very diverse shapes and sizes which make up the choir? My initial thought was pink body paint, a la the Tango man, but in cerise of course. But then I thought, why paint it on when you can just roll it on in the form of panty hose?
I hear you scoffing, but there is a campaign called e-MANcipate whose purpose is to promote the wearing of so-called "mantyhose" by the unfairer sex. After all, great men of the last two centuries wore doublets and hose, so why not today? That said, I am not entirely convinced of the patterns the site promotes, and the mantyhose would have to be opaque or the emergent rats nest of matted hairs will be enough to make audience members close enough to see us reach for their sickbags!
I also note that the e-MANcipate also asks the important question, "Is pink too femmy for men?". The correct answer of course being, "Of course NOT!"
