ROAD - Ideas for costumes

I know you are all getting excited about what you are going to wear but you need to think carefully about what your character would wear, remember their financial situation and other factors that would affect their clothing and general appearance.

Google 'Road' by Jim Cartwright in Google Image search and you will get some ideas from some of the pictures taken during other performances.

Scullery - should look a bit scruffy, baggy clothes and lots of layers. Possibly with a woolie hat.
Chantal - a bit chavvy, fake ugg boots and tracksuit

Brenda - dark clothes, plain, she doesn't care about her appearance.
Carol - she's getting ready to go out, again a bit chavvy.
Louise - going out also, she tries to make an effort, short skirt.
Brink - jeans and a show-off shirt, think's he look great.
Eddie - jeans, show off shirt, maybe a leather jacket.
Molly - dress, old knitted jumper.
Professor   - jeans, scruffy top and a baggy coat, needs a satchel style bag.
Skin-Lad - jeans, white t shirt
Helen - jeans, nice top, loads of jewellery.
Jerry - suit trousers, shirt and tie.
Joey - trackie bottom, t-shirt (mayybe with a slogan)
Clare - ordinary, jeans and top.
Curt - army jacket, jeans.
Valerie - dressing gown, slippers.
