Full Production.
A Full Production is everything your cast wears, handled by one person from the first brief to opening night.
I can design the whole show or realise your designer’s designs. I cost and source every fabric, then cut, make, customise and dye each costume, fit every performer, build in quick changes and mic access, and deliver labelled, show-ready rails with handover notes, so your wardrobe team can run the show from day one.
Because I also work as a Wardrobe Manager, every costume is built to survive a real run: eight shows a week, fast changes and all.

and touring shows that need a complete costume plot, delivered on time
