Theater costumes!

My school is doing a spring musical this year, and that got me thinking about what they might do for their costumes! They might just rent from other big theaters or Opera houses, or they might have the students that are interested help out, like they do for the lights. So I asked a friend what they do for the tech stuff and he said they have students do it! So I emailed the director of technical things for the play telling him that I am an aspiring costume designer and would like to help out. I am so excited because I think they will need me, and now I have a chance to work with costumes! And the play takes place in the time period that I have been studying. I can't wait. The play is called "Kiss me Kate" a take off on the play "The taming of the shrew" by shakespear.
