Arts in East Herts: Costume Construction Masterclass: Waistcoat

Waistcoats are often used by costume designers as a tool to identify differences in characters on stage, especially in period pieces. Learn the basics of costume construction (without the complexities of tailoring) in this 2 hour Masterclass with local Stage Design & Production team Scene2.

Scenic Artists - Will Coyne and Alice Nelson – will share their skills in costume design and construction to create a “one size” untailored waistcoat. Working with basic pattern blocks and a range of materials from the Scene2 store, once an individual knows how to create a waistcoat, they can use that as a base for other items of clothing.

No need to bring anything – all materials provided.

Scene2 are the Stage & Costume DesignProduction team behind some of the UK’s top immersive experiences – from The Paddington Bear Experience & Monopoly Lifesized with Path Entertainment, to War of the Worlds Immersive Experience, and TV set design for BBC Studios, the team at Scene2 are thrilled to bring their skills in design and production to BEAM to inspire creativity through theatre.
