Avenue Q
StageWest Theater Company, Des Moines, IA
In Avenue Q, there are two categories of costumes for performers: for the actors playing human characters and for the puppeteers. The character costumes complement the playful and cartoonish production concept using bright colors and fun patterns.

The puppeteer costumes, however, were designed to recede, allowing focus on the puppets. Though the puppeteers were dressed in black, their costume pieces were chosen specifically to support each puppet’s personality.
