Dance Production Stills

I was drawn to the beautifully designed quilt that Brian, Kimitha Cashin (our props master who’s been assisting in costume construction for this show), and costume assistant Mary Beth Regan (“MB” as she’s known by), were creating for the character of Mother Shaw.

While visiting, I also took a sneak-peek at the hats Brian was finishing up for the show. A few were purchased in New York and then embellished and detailed for each specific character, while Brian himself hand-crafted many others from scratch, including the gorgeous fox hat you’ll see in the show, made from a real fox shawl he found at a flea market that he completed with glowing jeweled eyes, and the African hat.
