Guildford Opera Company
Costume Hire
Hiring
costumes for shows is always a major item of expenditure but Guildford
Opera Company has built up a large collection of costumes over the
years, looked after by Kris Benjafield, and they are available for hire
(at reasonable rates).
The company
now tries not to hire in many costumes for a show, but where possible
to utilise existing stocks, altering or making new costumes as
required. Kris also looks after the costumes for another local society,
Ghosts, and these are also available to the company for shows, (and for
hire) increasing the variety of costumes now available.
Kris is often
in need of help with costumes, and if you have any expertise in
dressmaking, live locally and can spare some time, she would be very
appreciative of extra help, especially in the period approaching
performances!
