Cosplay Meets Performance with These Hercules Costumes
When cosplayers enter in costume masquerades at conventions, there’s usually a skit and/or performance aspect. A group of women dressed as the Muses from Hercules at Phoenix Comicon and lip-synced “Zero to Hero.” They mimicked the Muses’ different hairstyles and dresses to a tee. Cosplayer Alexis Noriega, a.k.a. The Crooked Feather, said she gathered ladies she used to be in the color guard with for the task. They won first place in the group category. You can see a couple of making of the Muses costumes below.
