Production Designer Chelsea Warren has begun fitting the singers for costumes for Acis and Galatea. Below, tenor Brian Hoffman tries on shoes just after his pants have been fitted.
Of course, Chelsea wouldn’t be able to complete her work without her assistants. Below, Craft/Speciality Items Assistant Gwen Smuda (right) and Props & Paint Assistant Katherine Greenleaf (left) are busy constructing a costume element out of pages from a book. The details in their work are truly astounding; a wedding dress made out of books which Chelsea mentioned in an earlier post, for example, uses pages from a 1950s manual on motherhood!
