Spent the afternoon yesterday - March 10th, 2018 - with these lovelies at the Academy for the Performing Arts at the University of Trinidad and Tobago, where I held a workshop session on stage makeup as part of the Design for Performance exhibition, presented in collaboration with the National Drama Association of Trinidad and Tobago. We sat, we chatted and we had a good ol’ bull session! Bottom photo is of a couple of costumes from a pair of productions I both designed and directed - the “Horseman” costume from Peter Shaffer’s Equus (left) and the final “Mavis” costume from Errol John’s Moon On A Rainbow Shawl.
