Costumes designed and made for devised or physical drama, for contemporary circus or for dance, differ radically from the more traditional costume work produced for naturalistic performance. For those working in the field - whether professional or student - these differences present challenges that this book seeks to highlight and explain while offering effective solutions to overcome them. Includes: the differences between designing for scripted and for devised work; the specialized designing, cutting and making, and fitting of costumes for dance, circus and other physical work; the role of the designer/maker in the devising company; design invention in the rehearsal room; the management of both time and budget with the late changes that happen with devised work; the breadth of different skills used in the work for performance.

From the Blurb: Effective costume design is a subtle art, for the impact of stage dress can immediately convey historical perspective, insights into individual characters, and a visual complement to the setting. Douglas A. Russell, whose years of experience as a costume designer have made him a master of the craft, examines every detail of the complex process. From script to production, Professor Russell guides the reader towards a complete understanding of costume design, for his work encompasses critical, aesthetic, practical, and historical viewpoints. On the one hand, Stage Costume Design is a practical manual which provides a step-by-step scheme for the construction of a costume. Every technical aspect-sketching, design and composition, color, fabric and pattern selection, accessory construction, ornamentation, and production organization-is here discussed with precision and clarity. Probing beyond mechanical problems, the author also investigates costume in terms of color association, the effect of fabric under light, and the structure of costume as personal expression. At the same time, this exemplary guide is the first in its field to emphasize costume design as an art as well as a craft; no other volume has so thoroughly explored the relation of costume design to the other arts of sculpture, architecture, and painting. By comparing period style to costume design, Professor Russell offers an entirely new artistic perspective too often overlooked in traditional texts. Although costume designing is shown to be a very complicated process, Professor Russell's introductory text will surely reward all who study it with care.

A substantive exploration of theatrical costume Stage costumes reveal character. They tell audiences who the character is or how a character functions within the world of the play, among other things. Theatrical costuming, however, along with other forms of theatre design, has often been considered merely a craft, rather than part of the deeply systemic creation of meaning onstage. In what ways do our clothes shape and reveal our habits of behavior? How do stage costumes work to reveal one kind of habit via the manipulation of another? How might theatre practitioners learn to most effectively exploit this dynamic? Theatre Symposium, Volume 26 analyzes the ways in which meaning is conveyed through costuming for the stage and explores the underlying assumptions embedded in theatrical practice and costume production.

A History of the Theatre Costume Business is the first-ever comprehensive book on the subject, as related by award-winning actors and designers, and first hand by the drapers, tailors, and craftspeople who make the clothes that dazzle on stage. Readers will learn why stage clothes are made today, by whom, and how. They will also learn how today’s shops and ateliers arose from the shops and makers who founded the business. This never-before-told story shows that there is as much drama behind the scenes as there is in the performance: famous actors relate their intimate experiences in the fitting room, the glories of gorgeous costumes, and the mortification when things go wrong, while the costume makers explain how famous shows were created with toil, tears, and sweat, and sometimes even a little blood. This is history told by the people who were present at the creation – some of whom are no longer around to tell their own story. Based on original research and first-hand reporting, A History of the Theatre Costume Business is written for theatre professionals: actors, directors, producers, costume makers, and designers. It is also an excellent resource for all theatregoers who have marveled at the gorgeous dresses and fanciful costumes that create the magic on stage, as well as for the next generation of drapers and designers.
