19 Tesla to the Rescue

Boulder

This is from the Christmas show that I write, direct, and act in every year. This year's show was set in a Colorado mountain town, and included a mummers play featuring Alferd Packer (the Colorado cannibal--the South Park creators wrote a musical about him when they were at CU Boulder), Sasquatch, Chop, the buffalo/bison sports mascot, and Nikola Tesla, who had a lab in Colorado Springs for a year. When the hero, Chop, dies in a ritual, he has to be brought back to life, so it was Tesla to the rescue (along with two Tesla Girls, from the OMD song). I'll put pictures of Chop in his mascot gear, Sasquatch, and Alferd Packer (munching on a foot-long sub) in Pending.

I saw this earlier but didn’t have time to comment but I was going to say I felt it was a female in the green outfit. Small, dainty, looks to be fit and I see what appears to be female breast’s behind the green jacket. Maybe she’s in Alastair’s running group. Paul

It is a pigeon. Tesla was famously obsessed with the birds, and one in particular. It's not me in the green suit. I took the picture. Tesla is Kathleen, who is a regular in our shows (and has one of the best singing voices). She played Five Spice in last year's Tower of London show (an amalgam of all five of the Spice Girls), and Celine Dijon (complete with comically large mustard pot around her neck) in the previous year's French Canadian show. Her Tesla accent was hilarious.

I think it is a pigeon on his shoulder...but is that Alastair in the green suit? BTW, this looks like such fun, I'd probably pay to see it. Traveller

Gotta love the goggles, and the blue duck (?) on his shoulder.
