Have a look into what our Costume Construction class with instructor Savannah Bower has been up to this semester!

Course Description: "The costume shop is often thought of as the heart of a theatre. This fun, hands-on course will introduce students to equipment, procedures, and personnel in the design and ex*****on of costumes for theatrical productions. The course will teach basic construction techniques with a series of projects, each building in difficulty and using a different patterning approach. There will be as much hands-on practice as possible, as this is a craft learned by doing. Quality garments will be produced utilizing machine and manual industry sewing and pattern and draping techniques."

Dear Hollins Community,
When building our thesis projects over the last year, we chose plays that we believed would best serve our audiences. In light of the tragedy this past week, the needs of our community have shifted and our goals along with them.
For that reason, we have made the difficult decision to not share our thesis work with the public or the larger campus community this semester. We thank you for your understanding and your support of us as artists.
We give our hearts to Phuong-Anh, and to our entire Hollins family, as we come together to honor and remember.
Cardinal Star Collective ‘25

Out of care for our company and our community, Cardinal Star Collective will not be performing Burial of a Star this weekend. We are communicating with one another to determine how to move forward. Thank you for your understanding and know that our hearts are with the entire Hollins community in this time of grief.
——
We love and miss you, Fishi. This campus will never forget you 💚💛

Please go support some incredible Hollins alums at ROMEO AND JULIET: THE DRAG SHOW a shakes-queer spectacular!
At 5 Points Music Sanctuary on March 15th. Doors at 7, show at 8.
"What light through yonder window breaks? It is the East, and Juliet is a drag queen! This is Shakespeare like you've never seen it before! An all-drag-artist cast, featuring some of Southwest Virginia's favorite queens and kings, brings you the classic tale of Romeo and Juliet in a brand new, gender-bending experience. Follow the story of the star-crossed lovers through upbeat lip syncs, Shakespearean shade, and dazzling dance numbers all the way to their tragic death(drop)s. Directed by Nadya Beeswax and Bromeo, this is a one-night-only theatrical drag spectacular that you won't want to miss. All the world's a stage... we're born naked and the rest is drag!"
