Jonathan Larson’s Rent was one of the first pieces of theatre I truly fell in love with, so it was a pleasure to work on this production under SCAD MT. This project gave me the opportunity to play with one of my favorite pieces of theatrical media and reimagine it in an early 2000s setting. I played a lot with color, including a specific emphasis on the color red to indicate the spread of the AIDs virus in the characters as a parallel to the red ribbon of awareness.
This was my first time ever working as a costume designer, ideating each design and sourcing all pieces on my own for a cast of 18.
