From Page to Stage

When creating the look for BUT NOT GOODBYE, costume designer Deborah Anderson started first with rough sketches to show director Steve Garfinkel how she imagined the show would look. Once that is agreed upon, the designer must then go and find what is available out in the world to match her/his design.

Here are a couple of Debi's "roughs" along side how the costumes were actually executed.

And that's the word on the street!
