Please join us for a live streamed event on Zoom on Friday, July 10th at 6 pm CST for A Conversation with Jane Greenwood. Ms Greenwood is a Costume Designer for stage, television, film, opera and dance working in both England and the United States. A 21 time Tony nominee for her work, she won in 2017 for The Little Foxes. She also received a Lifetime Achievement Tony Award in 2014 and was a Professor of Design at the Yale School of Drama from 1976 to 2019.
Ms. Greenwood is the most prolific designer of any kind - costumes, lighting or sets - on Broadway. She has dressed actors from Katherine Hepburn, Richard Burton and Jason Robards to Scarlett Johansson and Ben Stiller. Her most recent work will be seen in Plaza Suite on Broadway, starring Matthew Broderick and Sarah Jessica Parker.
You will hear how Ms. Greenwood became a Costume Designer, about actors she has worked with, and her philosophy regarding design and the detective work required. The executive directors of the Broadway League and American Theater Wing have said, "She has made a significant imprint on the history of Broadway with her artistry. Her work has not only elevated the craft of costume design but has inspired generations of designers to come."
This event will be free to the public. Please register by emailing info@tenchimneys.org no later than noon on July 10th. A Zoom link will in turn be emailed to you the day of the event.
