Peter Pan

Lighthouse Poole
Costume Designs by Ken Powell

Debra Stephenson as Peter Pan

Gary Turner as Captain Hook

Kate Weston as Mermaid Sinead Kenny as Tiger Lily

Luke Drane as Crocodile

The concept

Each charatcer is different, with Hook, yes it has a 18th century feel to it, but also a military look, and that he is a well-to-do man, Also I took away the Charles ii's hair style away, which made it more relistic, and that you know, oh it's the same actor how is playing Mr Darling.

With Peter's costume, I tried to make sure that it was still green, and using a camouflage pattern, which tires in with Hook's millitary look, and it's modern. but it's still got the pan look about it.

Design Work

At this moment in time, I am working on my E.M.P at uni, but on the side I am working on one or two projects.

I will be styling a production of FAME the Musical, which will be on at the Pier Theatre in Bournemouth,

Part from that I am working on two other production - working with the actors from the Art Institute, BA Acting,

One of them is base on an Edgar Allan Poe, short story, with a Tim Burton look to it. Below you will see the two designs I have been working on.

The second one is base on a theme is Jame Bond. My Designs for that are below

I was the costume supervisor for this project, I worked with the designer, to make her ideas come to life. Four of the costume's were made. The rest was found or hired.

Also I had to design 6 of the other characters. Mrs Barton and Will Wilson (see image below) was just two of the characters that I designed.

My Work

Hi





this is the first time I've started a Blog, and as that is the way this world is going I better make a start.

Nicholas Nickleby - Jellicoe Theatre

I have been a student know for about 8 years, I start at Jellicoe Theatre, I was there for 4 Years, and it wasn't the best time of my life. But at first I did enjoyed it. By the time I got to the forth and final year, it went down hill, well as they say, to much of a good thing.

My F.M.P was a 6hr production of Nicholas Nickleby (see above image). Where I was to designed the costumes and then find them, well it didn't really happen that way. I realised that the course didn't do much in costume, it is more Stage management, Set, Sound and Lighting based. I will say this if you want to learn a little bit about the Theatre, then go there. but there are better places.

In my 3rd year there, I knew what area of the theatre I wanted to work in, that is Costume. You see I wanted be be an actor but over time things change.



After Jellicoe, I went to the Arts Institute at Bournemouth, My Interview, was i think great, I know I didn't get on at first, but they said if I do a FD Yr first, then go on, they did say I knew a lot about theatre. After the interview, I know where I wanted to be. I ended up on a FD course, then after that, and that was a great, time, trying out new things, and being free with ART, so to say. but I still long to do Costume.



The Costume Course, at first I really didn't think I was right for it. but I kept going, it wasn't until the 2nd yr where I supervised a project, I really found something I can do, and do it well, and it's this that I want to do as a job later on. With help the Course Team. and now you see I'm on the last year, which I think, is a big job, and a great thing to look back on what I have done, and after being told that I wouldn't be able to read and write again.
