Creating a Starcatching Color Palette for Peter
Rachel Pollock at work |
Rachel was painter/dyer for the individual parts of each of the many costumes worn by thirteen actors portraying over 100 characters, while her co-craftsperson, third year graduate student Erin Abbenante, made many of the hats and headdresses. Together they served as a craftwork team of
two, coordinating with the main costume shop team, comprised of many more costumers (both staff and
students), working as tailors, drapers, stitchers and more.
