It was too much fun playing Nell; I still miss her!
Our costumes weren't perfect historically (tight budgets and all that), but they looked pretty good. Our dresses looked sort of Marie Antoinette. Mine was green with white lace which I wore with pearls. I also, of course, had to go out and get hair pieces so I could have that HUGE hair!
My favourite costumes, though, were Sedley's outfit (a gorgeous blue frock coat, waistcoat, and trousers with maroon detail and floral lining) and Charles' robe (black velvet with paisley lining).

Sounds like fun! Do you have any pictures?
I do! I've been thinking about putting them up on here but I have to ask the theatre if it's alright for me to do so.
Cool, I'll be interested in hearing what happens! 
I FINALLY got the photos up if you want to check them out.
Sure! Where are they?
These are lots of fun. I love how you did the hair-- it's perfect for Nell Gwyn, and very period-correct.
