Costume and Wigs Creative Skills Talk – 15 May

As part of Northern Ireland Opera and Diva Opera’s partnership around the new production of La bohème in the Carlisle Memorial Church, audiences are invited to a special Skills Talk with Charlotte Hillier and Joanne Berry, the Diva Opera Costume and Wigs Team.

This talk will offer insight into the craft, design process and practical realities of period costuming for unconventional spaces. Diva Opera, founded over thirty years ago to take opera beyond traditional theatres and into distinctive settings, has built an international reputation as Britain’s foremost chamber opera company.

The event will be of interest to those with a professional or amateur interest in period costume design and creation, including wig design.
