Calvin Barrows
Costume Designer
Calvin Barrows by Amir Gad is a new play produced by Theater By Development as part of the 2024 Fringe Festival.
The show follows a web of people brought together by a mutual friend's comatose fate. It follows the group through the night of Calvin's "coma-versary" as they await the decision on Calvin's future.
Since my initial meeting with the director, the goal was to easily establish each character through their costumes, very "Clue" archetype style. Additionally, each character had a set color palette based on their relationship to Calvin, the primary character. This was both established in the script and a discussion with the creative team and cast.
To the left is a slideshow of my designs that I presented to the cast and team. In lieu of traditional renderings, I compiled specific research images that I then based each costume on.
