Back in 1998, Alan Cumming starred in the Broadway revival of Cabaret.

On Thursday October 11th, 2018, Lisa and I were invited to Queen Mary’s Dark Harbor for a behind the scenes look at the makeup process that brings Dark Harbor to life. We had the pleasure of meeting many talented makeup artists and watching them work seamlessly, knocking out different makeup looks in a matter of 10-15 minutes per character. The work they do is quick, efficient and quite honestly amazing. They are some of the most talented artists in the business. This is a look into their work and the magic they create. Enjoy.

Performing at Queen Mary's Dark Harbor twice a night, this group puts on a beautiful but dangerous show that is not to be missed. This blog gives a little insight as to who these people are behind the scenes and what makes them tick. Hope you enjoy.
