Try to order things right away in case they are coming from across the seas. We do have some hoop skirts available, and will try to add things to help you out, but the more you can provide the better.This is a very costume heavy show, but doing period shows are always harder. Thank you so much for all of your work on this! If you have any costume questions, or want to have something approved before you purchase it, send pictures to Shantice White (not Mindy). Her email is [email protected] and her cell phone is: (913) 660-8239 if you want to text her. (Please say you who you are when you do.) Her information is also at the top of each page. I would also recommend contacting the person who plays your role in the opposite week just in case there is a possibility of sharing the costume (and the cost)! Also, if you are a lead, try to think of how many costumes you will logically need. If you are seen many times, try to come up with a few options that are similar, but different. Thank you so much! Happy shopping! This is going to be a fabulous show!!! 1 Contact Shantice White with any questions at 913-660-8239(text) , [email protected] Jean Valjean 1. Prison shirt and pants.
