Crap, I am not svelte enough to cross dress as an auburn haired rogue, plus my legs would need a serious shave.Cool! I'll see you there. There is no costume requirement. Here is a question and answer from a recent email on this question which was submitted to the coordinator of the Punoff.

"1) Can contestants wear disguises and/or goofy clothes?
=========================
Good questions both.
1. - Yes, this is encouraged, appreciated and often rewarded.
Something that totally disguises a person is probably more likely to
be a distraction if it is perceived that you may be someone notable
about to reveal him/herself. Any contestant arriving on stage with
make-up, masks, costumes etc. seems to offer the promise of an
unusual and compelling routine. For a few brief moments you will have
a slight advantage because of the anticipation generated by this. On
the other hand, if what you're presenting fails to live up to the
costume or props, it offers a double disappointment. There's a fine
line between a fine line and a final line.
