This Beautiful City
Costume Designer
This Beautiful City is based on real interviews of residents of the Evangelical capitol Colorado Springs, Colorado in 2006, just before and while the Ted Haggard scandal broke.
The musical showcases a wide variety of characters each with their own strong opinions and religious affiliations.
Because of the amount of characters, and the cast remaining onstage for the majority of the show, I designed each actor a base look with additional pieces, rooted in styles and colors from the 90s and 2000s.
