Sarah Constable discusses costumes. |
Sarah Constable is
constructing a bonnet for the Silver Lady, an automaton in play 6, “The
Clockwork Heart”. At about 4pm, she showed me the sketch for the character and
explained that she and the other costumers will be creating a bustle cage out
of cardboard.
Having now seen
the costume, I’m amazed. The bustle, clockwork heart, and bonnet are all a
stunning silver. Watching tech for the piece right now, I’m intrigued by the
style. Where many of the other plays involve children, these characters are
British adults. The mood stands out, it strikes me as an industrial, fairy tale
world.
