This Toolkit provides a variety of resource articles, tips, slide decks, videos, and handouts for you, the do-it-all drama teacher, who has to both direct and put together the costumes for a show. Further to that, perhaps you don’t have a lot of costuming experience and don’t have an extensive costume budget, but want to add this skill to your productions. Where do you start? Right here! You don’t have to know how to sew. You don’t have to know how to draw. You don’t have to create your costumes from scratch. This resource takes you from pre-rehearsal analysis right through to post-production strike. Enjoy!
