Behind The Scenes: The Costume Shop

Our costume shop is pretty typical, only smaller than a normal theater. Fabric, ribbon, thread and patterns everywhere; you can tell that people actually work here. Not me. I just watch and remind people that the costume they're working on was needed yesterday. Or the day before.
In this photo you can see a performer in a 'body block'; a rough muslin mock-up costume that will be used as a pattern for the real thing, in this case, one of the diamyo for "47 Ronin".

Tell us a bit more about what your company will be doing, and why you chose toy theatre to do it in...
