Hello and welcome to the QL2 Blog!
My name is Rose and I am the Costume Designer for Quantum Leap in 2012.
Our first production for the year ‘Me Right Now’ will be on from 9–12 May at The Playhouse, Canberra Theatre. Through this site I will be blogging about the process of taking the performance to the stage, and you will be able to follow our progress as we move towards production week. We will be talking to the dancers and the people behind all the elements of the production so that you are able to get a great picture of what goes on here at QL2 Dance Inc.
I am very excited about being involved with QL2 this year. The problem solving that is required to design and make costumes that are functional for dance is challenging, and is really extending my design knowledge. We are mid-costume-production at the moment, and will be having working bees to get all the major sewing done. It’s fantastic having sketches that I have been working on come to life in real fabric form, knowing that the performers will soon be leaping and dancing in them.
Watch this space!
Hey Rose, looking forward to seeing your designs spring to life on the stage next month. – Julie
Thanks for your blog, Rose – wonderful to see your designs! Vilaisan and myself will especially look forward to this year’s QL performance. Good luck with it all! David
