Costumers- Building and tailoring (ongoing)
Experienced with a needle and thread? Miss having the opportunity to use your sewing machine? Swanson Theatre is looking for extra hands to build or tailor our costumes for the upcoming show. Costumes will either be purchased or built from scratch depending on the ability and interest of the volunteers. Fitting, tailoring, and hemming will be very appreciated.
Please Email Ms. Rosenthal if interested

 

Make up and Hair Artists requested (Dress rehearsals and Performances April 19th – 27th)
While makeup for all students is optional, character creation can be emphasized with the help of makeup, and it can give students additional confidence! If you have the interest and skill set and would like to support our actors with both their basic makeup and special character make up, this is the spot for you!

For health and safety– Disposable brushes and applicators will be provided, all makeup trays and containers will be washed with a water/hydrogen peroxide mix between each use (each student). No lip products will go directly on to students skin. Students are welcome to bring their own makeup and get help if they prefer.
