Robin Hood & Marian - Costume Maker

Robin Hood & Marian (Redgrave Theatre) Two piece suit designed by Aldo Vazquez, the tailored bodice was drafted by myself on the stand and the skirt was made from a paper pattern. I really enjoyed working out how to make the long flowing sleeves.

One of my favourite parts about BOVTS is that it feels ‘homegrown’. From the set to the costume, lighting, acting and sound, every single aspect of a theatre production or film is down to the students. The location of Clifton is so serene and the School being so small everyone knows each other and it feels so personal and special. Violet Morris, BA Professional Acting Student
