Props & Costumes Workshop
Jennifer has been volunteering backstage at local theaters since 1998 and has experienced every aspect of a production from behind the scenes. Whether directing, stage managing, serving as props chair, costumer, sound or light tech she has had a hand in dozens of shows. When asked if she has a favorite job she said, “As long as I have a creative outlet I’m going to love it, no matter what the task. Scavenging local businesses for props or building something from scratch, trolling ITunes for just the right music, repurposing old clothes for a costume, it all makes an impact on the final production.”
