Wigs, Hair and Makeup (WHAM) for Theatre

I've been involved in theatre for over 20 years in some capacity - from amateur dramatics to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival to off-West End in London.

​

Nowadays you'll find me backstage surrounded by pins, brushes, hairspray, wigs, mirrors - and even the odd prosthetic if the character calls for it!

​

Quick changes and repeated usage, that's the challenge of hair and makeup for the stage. I'll design wig styles and makeup looks that are repeatable and reliable show after show, and help cast turn into their characters night after night.

​

Some of my specific experience:

• Wig styling

• Wig cages

• Fringe theatre

• Period styling

• Airbrush makeup

• Prosthetic application

• Casualty & special effects

Can I help you with an upcoming amateur or professional production? Send me some details and I'd love to help.
