I'm a button, I'm a horseshoe, I'm a girl who's bad at metaphors.

Hiccup’s contribution to my Halloween costume- burying himself under a pattern piece. Like he has literally hidden under it. (at The Dollhouse)

About Me

I’m Caitlin, and I’m finally coming through the other side of my quarter-life crisis. I live in Florida with my spoiled little cats, Hiccup Horrendous Haddock IV and Astrid Cagney Hofferson. I had the privilege of working at the Great Movie Ride in Disney’s Hollywood Studios for four years and was part of the closing team, so you might have seen me as a tour guide, Mugsi Toccata, or Kate Durango. I’m now currently a guide at Kilimanjaro Safaris. When I’m not driving around in circles pointing at four different kinds of antelopes, I’m often found performing in local theatrical productions. or spending time with my giant boyfriend. Favorite things include the smell of dryer sheets, marathons of canceled TV shows, and rainy days (as long as I’m indoors at home).

I love taking on projects- sometimes projects that are a little too big. The first time I costumed Wedding Singer, I wasn’t prepared for the task. This time I was more than ready, and I was so lucky to have a great cast to work with. I stayed super under budget and put together a total of 201 different costume changes. And not only that, but I also performed in the show. Dancing is not my strongest suit and I know it, so I worked really hard on the multiple (intense) dance numbers and even though I sprained my ankle two weeks before we opened, I danced anyway and I’m happy with how I did. And now...onto the next shows!!

Hello, how are you, welcome to my swamp. #castmemberproblems #kilimanjarosafaris #thelittlestsimbaone

Everything is better when you’re wearing a cloud of rainbow tulle

We have no fun at The Wedding Singer. No fun at all. It’s all very serious. #partylikeits1985 (come see our final weekend of shows!)

I love staying busy!! Not only do I get to dress the beautiful cast of Legally Blonde with @brightstage this fall, but I’m also going to play Kitty Verdun in Charley’s Aunt this summer! (Which means making a couple of gorgeous Victorian costumes for myself- all of my Anne Shirley dreams are coming true!) And I’ll also be making my Florida directorial debut this December at @moonlightplayers with the holiday show this season, It’s a Wonderful Life! I’m very excited to direct again after a long hiatus.

“On the 15th of May, in the Jungle of Nool, in the heat of the day, in the cool of the pool, he was splashing, enjoying the jungle’s great joys, when Horton the Elephant heard a small noise.” #seussical #seussicalthemusical #gertrudemcfuzz

Happy Mother’s Day to my favorite mother!! Thanks for supporting me even when we’re states away, disneybounding with me and Lindsay, and passing on some killer genetics!

All of my 80s prom queen dreams are coming true; all you’ll need is me and all I need is you

zoom! into the Astrid cave #astridthekitten

I think this is one of my favorite scenes I’ve ever costumes- so many Hawaiian shirts! Also that’s @shaneisrad jamming on the drums after barely any rehearsal; he’s doing so well and I’m so proud. Also please enjoy @smoochyfan23 doing whatever that twirl thing is. #weddingsinger #partylikeits1985 #warblegoose #veronicaandkaren

Me: “why does everyone mistake me for a child?” Also me: wears shortalls unironically (also, thanks for the backdrop, Wedding Singer set) (also 📸: @im_aubrie because she’s my instagram husband)

Starting tonight we’re going to party like it’s 1985! Come see 80s Cinderella break it down at Harold and Debbie’s wedding three times this weekend. #partylikeits1985

At some point today I’ll do a real post, but for now here’s a photo of me moments after taking my final gangster show.

Jambo and welcome aboard the side eye safari #thelittlestsimbaone #kilimanjarosafari

“Shop smart. Shop S-Mart. You got that?” (Of course I’m throwing an Evil Dead reference into Wedding Singer.) #partylikeits1985 #evildeadthemusical

It’s @shaneisrad’s birthday today and I’m happy he was born. I don’t what I would do without him. He’s the best boyfriend, the best wedding date, the best cat dad, and my best friend

It’s #oldheadshotday but oops I still use this as a current headshot because apparently I stopped aging in 2008. On an unrelated note, who does headshots?

Everyone else is at Infinity War and I’m like...I can’t, I have rehearsal. (Also I don’t really have any strong feelings about Infinity War. I’m on season 9 of Criminal Minds though so that’s cool.)

Is this an unflattering picture? Absolutely! But I’m pretty proud of myself. I did my slowest 5k ever (I didn’t even time it) but I did it with a sprained ankle. (I think leaping for this picture was the most strenuous thing I did today and I had to make sure I landed on my good side!) I’m doing a lot right now between work and theatre stuff and getting my own life in order, but this morning felt great (the nap afterwards was even better). This was also the first race I’ve done since my diagnosis, and even though I was slow today I’m happy to see how much better I feel in general. I don’t know when my next Disney race will be, but I’ll be ready whenever it happens! #rundisney #rundisney2018 #starwars5k2018

Why are we running races while we’re doing shows? @the_captains_butler
