We are a part of a local theater group called CCT, Christian Community Theater, and we performed Beauty and the Beast over the summer of 2023. MelRae was the lead Costume Designer and she and the director, Bobby Tschoepe, worked hand-in-hand to design and create the costumes. One of the…
This is the fox costume I made from scratch. I take classes at a theater group called CYT, and at the end of each session, we present a showcase of what we learned in class. Recently, our class presented Peter Pan and I was the fox. We are not required…
