The cast of Death Becomes Her is celebrating the holidays this year with a dressing room door decorating competition! Cast member Bethany Tesarck is giving audience members a look inside the holiday tradition, complete with her Christopher Sieber-themed door.
The major rule of Death Becomes Her's competition is that dressing room numbers must remain exposed in any way. Therefore, dressing room 10 made their theme "10 Lords A Leapin'" – with the "Lord" being Sieber's Lord Farquaad from SHREK the Musical.
In a series of TikToks, Tesarck shows off the creation of their door, as well as Sieber and Jennifer Simard's reactions.

Madeline Ashton is the most beautiful actress (just ask her) ever to grace the stage and screen. Helen Sharp is the long-suffering author (just ask her) who lives in her shadow. They have always been the best of frenemies… until Madeline steals Helen’s fiancé away. As Helen plots revenge and Madeline clings to her rapidly fading star, their world is suddenly turned upside down by Viola Van Horn, a mysterious woman with a secret that’s to die for. After one sip of Viola’s magical potion, Madeline and Helen begin a new era of life (and death) with their youth and beauty restored… and a grudge to last eternity. Life’s a bitch and then you die. Or not!
