The house, representing Donna as a home, was torn apart revealing a crochet dress- like costume to which there were red ribbons attached—as a symbol of vulnerability and fragility. This profound visual tied perfectly into the themes of the play.

A huge shoutout to our brilliant costume designer, Hannah, whose creativity and hard work brought Donna’s story to life. The concept of creating a house as part of Donna’s costume was an idea we had from the start. We had doubts about it at first, as it would be hard for us to rehearse as a group with something so fragile, considering both Mairead and Ester- who played the characters of Law and Religion had to tear down the house near the end of our performance. Hannah did a great job at designing the house in a re- buildable way. She decided to construct the door and window as readjustable parts of the house.

Our incredible set designers, Canar and Yoyan, were truly amazing to work with. I learned so much from both of them throughout this unit. We were all deeply invested in the design of our set, and their dedication made it such a smooth and enjoyable process.

From the start, Canar and Yoyan made it easy to imagine our courtroom concept. They created detailed drawings and graphic projections that helped us visualize and fully understand the design early on. I especially appreciated how quickly they brought the stage props and set to life- it made rehearsing so much easier and more efficient.

After we all agreed on Donna's look, it was time to focus on the courtroom scene. I really loved the idea of using different colored tights to represent each party in court, it was such a clever concept. However, we ran into some challenges with the colors, and in the end, Natalie (Society) and I (Family) wore elegant black clothing instead. I do wish we had figured out a way to incorporate blue tights that complemented the performance and worked well under the spotlight.

That said, I really appreciated the simplicity of our costumes (Family, Society, Law, Religion). It allowed the audience to focus entirely on the message we wanted to convey. The sewn names on our backs were the perfect finishing touch, adding just the right amount of detail to tie everything together.

This was the first time our cohort faced the challenge of sharing one space and performing back-to-back without breaks. It was such a brilliant concept, and I think the audience loved it just as much as we did. Each piece was so distinct from the next, and I believe that created a dynamic flow that kept things engaging and completely eliminated any chance of monotony.

The first time I had the chance to watch others perform, I was completely blown away- not just by their creativity with costumes but especially by their set design. I was amazed at what this group was able to achieve. It was all in the details: the flickering light in the "Charity Shop" sign above the stage, the subtle sound effect of an old streetlight, it all felt so thoughtfully crafted.

What impressed me even more was how well they adapted their performance to the small corner they were given. I honestly believe the set wouldn’t have had the same charm or impact in a different space.

Collaborating with other courses for the first time was such an exciting experience. It gave me a deeper appreciation for the work and artistry in other fields, and I learned so much through the process.
