    Costume Lead

    Village Theatre Waterdown (VTW) is looking for a creative and organized volunteer Costume Lead to manage costuming for our theatrical seasons, including our upcoming production of Hilda's Yard.

    Lethbridge 208 Ryerson Road West, Lethbridge, AB 208 Ryerson Road West, Lethbridge, AB
    Role Details

    The Costume Lead plays a vital role in creating an exceptional audience experience for VTW’s productions. This individual works closely with show producers, directors, and actors to interpret the characters, tell the story, and enhance the viewing enjoyment of the audience. 

    While basic sewing skills are essential, sewing is not the primary focus of the role. VTW has an extensive wardrobe that can be repurposed, altered, or embellished. Whatever we lack, we can borrow from local theatres and various sources. 

    A love of theatre, clothing and textiles, passion for creativity, exceptional organizational skills, and effective communication and interpersonal skills are predictive of success in, and enjoyment of this role. 

    Key Responsibilities:

    • Study the script and characters to become familiar with costume requirements
    • Research the period and setting of the play, to achieve historical accuracy 
    • Manage the costuming process from planning to staging
    • Assemble and lead a team for each production, to help with the process
    • Manage costume budgets in coordination with the executive/production teams
    • Manage the VTW wardrobe room. This includes keeping the wardrobe organized, accepting costume donations, and occasionally lending to other theatres. 

    About Village Theatre Waterdown (VTW): We are a charitable community theatre dedicated to producing high-quality theatrical experiences and community events. For over 50 years, VTW has engaged over 100 volunteers and artists annually to bring theatre to the Greater Hamilton area. We are seeking individuals with a passion for theatre and an interest in sharing their expertise to help achieve the goals of a charitable community.

    If you are interested in this role, please send your resume to hello@villagetheatrewaterdown.ca.
