The Costume Shop

I am so fortunate to have a studio located in a historic theatre in a thriving downtown!  I am amazed daily at the creativity The Henegar Center for the Arts produces in all aspects of it’s productions.  The costume shop is no exception.  Did you know that the summer program’s costumes are all hand made right here??! Under the stage where the costume shop is located, our summer Costumer Shannon Reppert, volunteers and interns are sewing, measuring, painting, cutting out and batiking for this summer’s middle school production of “The Lion King Experience”.  It was amazing to witness the thought and hard work that went into every costume with each child in mind.  Here is a short video I put together showing a very small part of the costuming machine!  “The Lion King Experience” opens on the Henegar main stage Friday, July 14th at 7pm and Saturday, July 15 at 2pm and 7pm.  Purchase your tickets at the box office at 625 E. New Haven Ave. or on line HERE. Get out of the summer heat and bring your family!  We can’t wait to see you! HACUNA MATATA!
