Designing Costumes For Picasso By Barbara Young

This was a very challenging show that required a lot of understanding for the different personalities of the 10 characters. Once the personalities were established, the ideas fell into place and, keeping with the requirements of the script, the costumes were relatively simple. Each character has his own special look that makes him/her come alive in the beginning of the 20th century.  Everything from Einstein’s hair to the Messenger’s sunglasses was created to make viewing the show as much fun as hearing it.  I really enjoyed the process.
