In Twelfth Night, there is much concern with fabrics and clothing; from Viola’s transition from herself into Cesario, to Malvolio’s yellow stockings and cross-gartering and the robing and bearding of Sir Topas. Other givens include Olivia’s court starts out in mourning and transitions away from it and Orsino’s court has a romanticized and relaxed feel.
We wanted our Illyria to be distinctive with a flavor New Orleans without being specific to New Orleans, yet specific to our cast.
I leaned into the coastal environment and flavored it with the freedom of dress that is seen at Burning Man and otherFestivals. I also embraced a contemporary look that incorporates a bit of anachronistic and fanciful elements with an ”or What you will” attitude.

TAMMY FAYE’S FINAL AUDITION, Scenic and Costume Design
By: Merri Biechler
Tantrum Theater, Dublin, Ohio
Directed by Dennis Lee Delaney
Lighting Design : Daniel Winters
The premiere play by Merri Biechler depicts Tammy Faye Bakker’s final hours, flowing between life and death. Shifting between reality, memory, and revelation.
This two character play featured Shelley Delaney as Tammy Faye. The costume for Tammy gradually streamlined to a striped down pure version of herself without make up or a wig for the final moment of revelation.
Jonathan Hadley played The Men. Four men that were promanet in her life. Jim Jay Bullock, Jayme Baker,Jim Baker, and Roe Messiner

The request from Director Steve Tague was to create a period specific world with a heightened style and a musical theater attitude.
I used exaggerated 1890’s shapes, bold colors and sumptuous fabrics to meld with Oscar Wilde’s witty text.
