It's a Wonderful Life

Presented at the Alabama Shakespeare Festival, located in Montgomery, Alabama. Performed December 2nd thru December 31st, 2022.

When tragedy strikes George Bailey, he contemplates his life and the impact he has had on others. Luckily, his guardian angel, Clarence, shows him how much good he has done for the people of Bedford Falls, how special his wife and children are, and what a wonderful life he has led. This 1940's classic Christmas film has been adapted for the stage in a "radio play" setting, in which a small ensemble of actors play multiple characters in the story, perform sound effects to match the events, all while having it set in a radio station.

As the Wardrobe Supervisor for the Alabama Shakespeare Festival, I managed the dressing rooms and costumes (made run plots for the show and took care of laundering and dry cleaning), assisted with costume needs (adding snow to Jake Laurents/George Bailey at top of show), supervised wardrobe staff, and worked alongside the costume shop and wig team to bring the costumes, hair, and makeup together.
