A few months ago, I blogged about the Steampunk Shakespeare concept I was going to use for "The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged)" at NSCDS. I also posted this rendering of the costumes as a preview. The show finished up in October, and I now have the final production photos to share with you! I tried to stay as true to the concept as I could, but as with all shows that are shopped instead of built, the show evolved around the materials I found as I went along. In the end, it was a bit more Emo and Goth than Steampunk, but I fell that starting with the Steampunk concept really helped me step out of the boundries of a normal modern-dress show and take risks with the design. I'm very happy with the end product, and the kids LOVED their costumes... win-win!
If you'd like to skip the slideshow below, the photos are available to view full-screen on my Picasa album.
