This spring, GHOST's Stephen Carrasco had new headshots taken and printed. Like any actor, he had tons of old headshots leftover. They're eventually going to make their way into the garbage, so why not have a little fun first? Hence began the first (and only) GHOST on Broadway Doodle Contest. The GHOST cast and crew got on board, and as Carrasco puts it, "amazingness ensued." Scroll down for photos of the doodle entries!
Carrasco documented all submissions on Instagram (StephenCarrasco) and Twitter (@StephenCarrasco), and even entered one or two in last week's #SIP (Saturday Intermission Pics) series. Comments began to pour in from all over on every form of social media. GHOST fans even got involved and found Carrasco's old headshots online, printed them off, and dropped their submissions at the stage door.
Carrasco wrote to BroadwayWorld, "What started as a tiny bit of fun has blossomed into a huge moral boost, especially in light of our recent closing notice."
The grand prize was split between Lisa Preston and Joby Horrigan, both of GHOST's Wardrobe department. They were responsible for amazing entries like "...I'm not that girl..." "Now YOU pat the bunny," "Sweetie Darling," "Team Stephen," and "Mad Actor." Runner Up was also awarded to a member of Wardrobe, Nanette Golia for "Frida Carrasco."
