The California Shakespeare Theater costume department has just completed a huge reorganization of its inventory, and the result is tons and tons of costumes, wigs, and accessories, to be sold to the public at thrift-store prices for a few days only. 35 years’ worth of hats, armor, capes, Renaissance and Tudor, unique modern pieces—a little bit of everything! Perfect for Burning Man costumes, Ren Faire, Halloween, and what-have-you.
Cal Shakes’ 35th anniversary season continues with Noël Coward’s Private Lives, July 8-August 2; Happy Days, starring four-time Oscar nominee Marsha Mason August 12-September 6; and A Midsummer Night’s Dream September 16-October 11.
