About me
I’m experienced in running wardrobe and costume maintenance/construction, particularly for large scale musicals. I’m enthusiastic, an excellent organiser, and a hard working team member.After touring for 9 years I’ve relished making the move to London and the West End. I love working in the city & plan to stay here for many years to come.
I’ve worked almost exclusively in Musical Theatre but I’m also keen to build on my experience from The Menier and branch out into plays.
Additional skills:
Costume Maintenance, Alterations, Supervising Dressers, Daily Laundry & Ironing, Show Dressing, Shoe Repairs, Dyeing & Breaking Down, Costume Construction, Basic Wig Maintenance & Show Plot, Pattern Drafting & Cutting, Corsetry, Basic Tailoring & Millinery.
