Spring Awakening by Frank Wedekind
Italia Conti Academy @ Sheridan Studio, Italia Conti, October 2008
Director: Gari Jones Set Designer: Rob Miles Lighting Designer: Suzette Farrier
Costume designs for a contemporary take on the classic drama
of teenage angst, taking inspiration from the Emo and Gothic movements popular
with disaffected teens. Each character has their own look and colour developed
during rehearsal that fits into the overall world created. The teenagers play
the roles of the adults, donning single items of clothing, in their colour,
that typify the adult being played. The teachers are a horrible masked miasma with
taloned hands inspired by the look of slash rock group Slipknot. (Masks created
