Today was my final day working as costume assistant for Orangutan Productions 'Othello', and it was by far the busiest! After an online meeting in the morning with Eleanor and Emilie, I headed over to the University with a list of the costume items that I had photographed that they had decided on, plus a small list of extra items they needed adding.
I returned to the stock the items that were no longer needed, and organised the new additions and then had them priced them up by the costume store attendant on shift - with the slight snag that, on further contact with Eleanor and Emilie that the budget had been reduced from what was previously anticipated. However after negotiating with the University they agreed to let us use the items that we had selected! With the costume store open until 1;20, but the collector for the costumes not arriving until half 2, I then had to arrange for the costume collection, which again the University agreed to. So now, the costumes are in London and the show will go on, and after a very busy week on the job it is now time to move on to another show and another day.
Thank you again to Helen at the AUB!
