About me
Crew:I have been working in the theatre industry as a wardrobe assistant and as a costume production a manager/ costume designer for over 4 years. I have been a full time member of running wardrobe at The Royal Opera House since December 2020 and work across both opera and ballet. I am highly proficient at repairs and day to day maintenance including understanding laundry methods. In my spare time I volunteer as a costume production manager at my local theatre, where I work on mostly plays, from Shakespeare to modern day. We are lucky enough to have a very good quality costume store, but what I can’t find and alter there I will buy or hire from elsewhere. I undertake all fittings and make all the alterations myself.
