Abstract

My project was to research and design the play 'Red Velvet' by Lolita Chakrabarti. The play is primarily set in the 1830's during the anti-slavery protests. The play follows the actor Ira Aldridge as he discovers what it is like being a black performer during this time. My presentation will include research about the clothing of this era, the accessories, and hairstyles. Along with my design plates for each character. Presentation Time: Thursday, 3-4 p.m.
