Hi,
I'm directing a hs production of B&B next year. I'm sure this questions has been asked on here before but I'm looking to hear from some other people who have rented the show's costumes before. Good experiences? Companies to avoid? I'm looking for the best of the best here!

Thanks!!

I know Harris Costumes has some BATB costumes for rental... there are photos and a price list to download from their website if you want a closer look or are figuring your budget on costumes.

I directed a production and we used Heartland Costumes and they were very good

IIRC, Heartland's were the first rental set available. They used them in a production in NC, and I was quite impressed.

OMG, Mandi, that's my set! A stripped down version of the one I did for Theatre Cedar Rapids, but still...

Wow. Nice to know that my online design portfolio is doing someone some good.

My company has excellent B&B costumes. Broadway quality. I can put you in contact with my production manager who also did the design if you're interested.
