CHESS
Costume Design

  “With dancers garbed half in black and half in white (snaps to costumer Vandy Scoates for leaving the males bare-chested), the two chess matches featured balletic and acrobatic moves that had the audience gasping and cheering.”

2007

This production of chess was done as a staged concert to benefit Broadway Cares.  

Starring Matt Morison and Susan Egan, this production involved a full cast and required full costumes.  The Russians were represented in red while the american were in blue.  Florence (the main character of the musical) starts off in purple having an alliance with the American's but of Russian origin.  Later when she sings the song "Nobody's Side) he clothes turn gray as she is caught between both worlds.  

As a result of a charity auction, many of my original drawings were auctioned off to benefit Broadway Cares
