Information

Have you ever needed to sew a button, or quickly fix a hem moments before going on stage, or during a performance? Do you ever find yourself wandering through local thrift shops thinking, “this would be the perfect shirt for a show costume,” but when it comes time to put the costume together you’re not so sure it’s the perfect shirt? Or maybe you’ve needed to take a costume from drab to fab (or vice versa) but you weren’t quite sure how to get there. Ashleigh Goff will lead participants in our Costuming Tips & Tricks course through some costume assembly and repair basics, and discuss design practices that she has used to costume shows in the past. She’ll share some costuming techniques, and each student will walk away having practiced some skills they can put to use.
