Costume Supervisor Naomi Wright and cast member Dan Wolff give us an insight into the costumes for Pod, working with designer Jess Curtis to create clubwear for each member of the cast and how costume helps bring a role to life for an actor.
Pod is a new devised production, created and directed by Jamie Bradley and Vicki Igbokwe and devised with the company of Guildhall School actors, which weaves together bold street-style choreography and a colourful array of characters.
