Dressed for the Occasion

Stephen Jacovich, Marissa Jacovich, Lisa Collins and Meredith Engratt

Marissa Jacovich brought a special surprise to the opening of the show Spamalot last night at the Palace --her father, Stephen, dressed in knightly chain mail, which she created by hand in the theater's logo design. She and friends Lisa Collins and Meredith Engratt also wore clothing and jewelry designs that Marissa had crafted by weaving together rings formed from aluminum wire. Marissa began making chain mail after Lisa introduced her to the craft at a Renaissance fair. She started work on the custom costume Stephen is wearing last June when she heard the stage show, based on the Monty Python films, was coming to the Palace where she is a volunteer.
