Visual Statement offers intensive practical training in the art of theatrical costume making.

Classes are small and taught by highly experienced professional practitioners who all share the fundamental belief of the passing on of skills. The costume making workshop is a project based, apprentice style programme that concentrates on costume making to industry standard.

There's a lot of fun to be had by getting involved in costume making. Everyone is welcome to come along and have a go. No experience necessary!

General costume workshops

The main focus of costume production at Visual Statement is we need to maintain our large stock of costumes used in performances throughout the year. As well as repairing costumes and replacing missing sequins and feathers, there are also opportunities to build on existing costumes or even produce new ones using left-over materials.

Workshops take place regularly at evenings and weekends at our workshop at the bridge.

If you would like to get involved, please contact Visual Statement or email us at info@vstate.co.uk for more information.
