Special recognition also goes to Dee Morrissey, longtime Hillbarn make-up and wig designer. This production calls for mountains of wigs — with some of the women needing several — first as young girls, then as women and, later, as gray-haired women. Morrison makes every actor’s wig look remarkably authentic. The cast runs deep with excellent singers (almost a must for this show). Ivy is a surprise, because when she is young and afraid, her voice is quiet, fearful. But she really packs a vocal wallop by the time she leaves Mr. _____, starts a business (“Miss Celie’s Pants”) and then comes into her own singing the stirring “I Don’t Need You to Love Me” and “I’m Here.”.

To say she’s ambitious is a craven understatement. Shih is now working on an MBA at the University of Michigan. She already has a degree from Stanford in computer science and an M.S. in ecological studies, natural resources and the environment. The singer/scientist had worked at Cisco as a software engineer since 2000, retiring recently to pursue her MBA and concentrate on her music. Which music Vienna describes as folk/pop/indie and chamber pop. She has recorded four studio albums, plus one live album titled, A Moment Always Vanishing.
