the work of a wardrobe supervisor in the theatre
Dawn Graham provided an interesting talk and brought along a range of theatrical costumes all made by her.
The talk was fascinating: from sewing on buttons backstage to teaching on Drama Courses at Exeter College. She brought along 2 rails of clothes (mostly Edwardian) that she had made for various shows. Most costumes were backed with calico to give them weight.
