Philadelphia Story

Next up is a production of The Philadelphia Story by Philip Barry. The show will be produced at the Commonweal Theatre in Lanesboro, MN and directed by Michael Bigelow Dixon. This will be my first chance to work with Commonweal and I am very grateful for the opportunity. We are approaching the show with the intent to style it as it is written so I am looking at 1938 vintage dresses and suits. With the exception of characters Mike and Liz who are working class, these people are socialites and very well off so their clothes need to tell that story. We will see sporty riding clothes, fashionable day dress, evening gowns and tuxes, and wedding attire. Here's a sneak peek at what's cookin'.
