Ok here are some of the shots (by the talented Gwyneth Muller) that did not make it onto the initial ‘Mama G’ post. Some are too funny to leave out, while others are simply just too frightening to stop staring at . Enjoy

AHHHH! Fantastic. Those pictures of the makeup removal process are brilliant. I can hear you screaming “I’m melting” in your best Wicked Witch voice. Hope to see you in the part when I come this week!
