Each of our MFA Costume Design students created a sculptural expression that tells a deeply personal story. The culmination of this exploration was then synthesized into one design and fabricated by the gifted costume, design, and lighting artisans at the Virgini Wadsworth Wirtz Center for the Performing Arts.

Wirtz Center: Looking Back, Moving Forward! (See vid link in bio)
More than 15 months ago, we closed down our dynamic performing arts venues to wrestle with the global pandemic. We have been focused on providing a diverse range of opportunities for our students to create and perform while at the same time inviting interested audiences to join us. All in all, 23 opportunities were provided that involved more than 1,340 students participating or viewing these offerings. As we move forward, the Wirtz Center is committed to providing a range of diverse and top-notch experiences for our students to create and perform while at the same time inviting audiences to join us. Please know we are planning that this fall will mark a return to safe, in-person live performances. Thank you for your continued support of the Virginia Wadsworth Wirtz Center for the Performing Arts, stay tuned for announcements about the year ahead, and we look forward to welcoming you back! In the meantime, see vid link in bio. #northwesternu #northwesterntheatre #northwesternuniversity #wirtzcenterfortheperformingarts #wirtzcenter
