9. LAUREL PARRISH - Wardrobe Department at WICKED

October 05, 2020 • Mary Beth Smith

On today’s episode, I speak with Laurel Parrish from the Wardrobe Department at Wicked. Laurel and I discuss what it’s like to be a dresser on Broadway, the ins and outs of quick changes, and costume fabric care. Our conversation is a unique look at what happens backstage at a Broadway show and she shares some great advice for anyone looking to work in a production wardrobe department. Laurel also provides a few fun Wicked wardrobe facts that you won't want to miss, so stick around until the very end.
