Fun Home
Having designed Fun Home once before, I was able to delve deeper into the research of the period and specifically focus on the nuisances of how certain queer people dressed. It is the subtle details of how a person wears or styles their clothing that tells the audience about that character's personality, and in this time when many queer people were not out it was a way to use clothing as a signal to others about their sexual orientation. Using this knowledge, I was able to design a show that gave these characters authenticity and showed the progression of Alison in her journey of self-discovery.
