Do you collect souvenir t-shirts from every show you work? Me too! Now you've got drawers and drawers full of t-shirts? Me too! Is your idea of "dress-up" a clean t-shirt? Mine too! When you do laundry, and you end up with all those piles of t-shirts, don't you hate the time it takes to fold them all? Me too!
Last week, Jay Leno noted that when Martha Stewart begins her prison term, she'll begin working at a wage of between 18 and 40 cents an hour. "In other words," said Leno, "she'll be earning the same as all the people currently making the Martha Stewart line of clothing." What Martha doesn't know, yet, is how efficient those Asian sweatshop employees are thanks to the application of such arts as Japanese origami. Thanks to this short but incredible training video, I can now fold thirty t-shirts perfectly in less than one minute. Yes, you read that right: in less than two seconds and in one smooth motion you can have a flawlessly folded t-shirt: talk about washday miracles! What has this got to do with theatrical special effects? Everything! Those wardrobe people will absolutely freak out when you demonstrate this and you'll be acknowledged as the backstage wizard that we know you are.
