Context: A play like A Midsummer Night's Dream has such a magical quality that it gives a freedom to the designer's imagination. This can mean the clothes do not have to behave in normal ordinary ways. For one production Titania had an enormous cloak made of many multicoloured pieces of silk. Fairies were dressed in scraps of the same fabric and even parts of the stage were coloured the same so sometimes she could blend into the background or hide fairies amongst her clothing. |
