Reviews - What do our customers think?
basic  Aug 10, 2007
This was a very basic book and the designs inside were almost infantile..so it was not what I was hoping for...but nevertheless..will be another book on costume to add to the collection.
 
Not worth the paper it's printed on.  Sep 27, 2002
As a professional costume designer, I was appalled at the misinformation in this book. It cited wrong time periods for plays, along with bad advice for the non-professional theater person. I returned it after a brief perusal, so that I would not be contaminated by it's inaneness.
 
Not about costumes - summaries of plays instead  Jul 23, 2000
This book really does a much better job of giving you the plot of the many plays it touches on rather than what the costumes should look like. The actual costume information could be contained in 10 pages. Some of the information regarding what the characters should wear is questionable. No substance.
