Students working across Wimbledon College of Arts’ BA Costume for Theatre and Screen and BA Acting and Performance bring to life well-known characters from a range of musicals in a spectacular live performance in the V&A Galleries. Using well-known and well-loved characters as a starting point for development and characterisation, this live installation will showcase costumed actors in a colourful, immersive and exciting experience to celebrate Earth Day.
The focus of the costume construction will be on exploring innovative solutions to sustainable sourcing to support the possibilities for repurposing and reworking materials to create fun, sophisticated and original outcomes.

This performance will take place at 11:30 and 13:00.
