Mary Moody Northen Theatre's annual ten minute play festival took place on a special outdoor stage in the fall of 2020. The festival consisted of 11 different plays starring and directed by St. Edward's University students. I designed the costumes for all 11 shows, which featured a wide range of characters, from a 1940s detective to a sock monkey to the Greek god Zeus. 

One of the most unique characteristics of this production was that each actor wore a custom-made face mask to protect against COVID-19. We developed a special pattern for the masks that included extra coverage around the chin, as well as wire in the nosepiece and in the center front. This design allowed the masks to fit the actors' faces securely and comfortably.
