We will discuss two plays and design costumes from this perspective, while simultaneously learning about the Costume Designer's responsibilities as an artist, researcher and collaborator. The lab component of this course will introduce students to the relationship between the Designer and the Costume Shop, providing ample projects for learning about textiles, equipment and sewing techniques.
