Noted makeup artist visits Waco Children’s Theater
By Carl Hoover

Hollywood makeup artist Bobbie Weiner dropped by the Waco Children’s Theater on Thursday to do some demonstrations for the theater kids there.
I caught her transforming Midway High School ‘08 graduate David Haskett into a scary clown (we’ve got an online slide show here). Lest anyone worry that kids might be traumatized at seeing a demented clown, let me say that some of the third and fourth graders present egged her on: “Put a scar down his neck.” “Have pus coming out of his eyes.” By the time she finished, Haskett sported skin eruptions, bleeding ears and nostrils, rotten teeth and a slashed throat.
As one kid muttered approvingly, “Oh, that’s scary, just plain scary.”
Weiner also could give lessons in entrepeneurial strategies: She markets makeup kits for sports fans, the military, funeral homes, goth fans and holiday costumers; created “The Tales of Bloody Mary” comic book line (her professional nickname is Bloody Mary, btw); sells a hot sauce and cocktail mix (Bloody Mary, of course); and has a Six Flags Over Texas attraction named for her and a second one in the works with Universal Studios in Orlando.
