In this workshop we are going to look at a the points to consider when planning a troupe costume, and how color, style, fabric and fit can influence your choices. We will look at how to please your troupe mates and your audiences with budget friendly, adaptable looks. This workshop is packed with photos of real troupes to inspire you and to help you decide just how coordinated you want your troupe to look. Feel free to critique the examples I have shared, and use your fellow workshop attendees to bounce around ideas.
