Theatre Production Lab III: Assistant Costume Designer

For this lab, students will assist the costume designer with many aspects of the design process, depending on the needs of the show. Through this work they will learn about the process and become acquainted with the relationship between the designer and the costume shop. They will assist with such activities as research, pulling from stock, shopping, special construction projects, wigs, ensemble costuming, and being a liaison during dress rehearsals. Students will work on one departmental production during the design process through dress rehearsals. The work that students do on that production will vary by student and will be determined by the needs of the production and may evolve during rehearsal.
