| Description | Files containing information regarding the costumes for each production.
These vary in the type of materials retained but can include costume plots (lists of costumes worn by each actor or a breakdown of scenes showing costume changes); actors' measurements; character sheets containing detailed information regarding costumes including the maker, fabrics used (quantities and price) and often sample swatches; copies of costume designs or source material and budgetary information. In addition, files from the pre-South Bank era containing costume plots often include cast lists and changes. |
