Boston Common this summer.
The Cutler Majestic this winter.
Either way, the infrastructure
question is the same.

Most productions treat textured hair as a last-minute styling problem. CommShakes has two shows this year with diverse casts and specific, non-overlapping demands: an outdoor summer production on the Boston Common, and a wig-heavy winter production at the Cutler Majestic. The gap shows up differently in each — in humidity management and style durability outdoors, in wig fit, mid-show changes, and period constraints inside. This engagement builds the infrastructure before the first production meeting, for whichever show moves first.
