The real trooper of the show was Katy, our first lady from the 20th century. I called Katy up the night before the show just to go over the last details and she was having a hard time even talking due to a lung infection. I immediately started wondering if strapping someone who can barely breath into a very tight corset was a good idea, but Katy thought she could do it. It didn’t help that Katy had to get squeezed down the furthest, to a 22″ waist in order to get into her 1900 ensemble.
