  Additional Skills

  I have run large Wardrobe departments on full scale musicals as well as small one-man operations. I am proficient at costume repairs and alterations and have a wealth of experience doing weekly get-ins and get-outs. I have lead a department of 16 staff, and also managed Wardrobes using local dressers on tour.

  All in all, I am always up for a challenge and I feel I could tackle anything thrown on my direction.

  About me

  I began work as a dresser on Les Miserables in London in 1988, before graduating up to Wardrobe Assistant, Deputy, Acting Head then Head of Wardrobe from 2004 until 2010.

  Since then I have been Wardrobe Manager on the Novello season of Tap Dogs, the national tour of the dance show Blaze and Cinderella at the Floral Pavilion Theatre on the Wirral.

  More recently, I have been Wardrobe Master on National tours of Benidorm Live, The Glenn Miller Story, Anything Goes, Scrooge, Fiddler on the Roof, Soul Sister and Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat. Prior to Benidorm, I was assistant on The Ferryman at The Gielgud.

  I did some swing dressing on The Book of Mormon and also dressed on the Raymond Gubbay production of Carmen at the O2.

  I was Costume Supervisor on a short film, Fetch, for FadeUp Films and was also Deputy Wardrobe Master on Dreamboats and Petticoats at the Playhouse Theatre in London.
