costumes round 1

So, the first round of costume sketches is in.

Our costume designer had the brilliant idea to create all of the puppets outfits out of non-fabric choices. We worked on it for a while, how do we create a really cool non-human clothing experience without getting all performance arty on you? One of the first ideas was for Falstaff to have a suit made of budweiser cans....that didn't last, but it shows you where our heads were at. So, now Anne Page's outfit is made of flowers and twigs, the dr's outfit is made up of latex gloves, band aids, and pill bottles, and pistols suit of armor is actually a toy xylophone...so when he gets upset, he can either shoot out of the top of his head (like the puppet is built to) or he can play his chest...who would have thought I would ever type that sentence?

Pics will go up very soon.
