Adam Stocker and the Theater Interview That Went All Wrong

This past week as Anne of Green Gables went into tech rehearsal and we finally had our first public performance, I was reminded that there is a very particular important step that happens as you leave the rehearsal studio and finally start working on stage and that is the introduction of costumes. For me as an actor the adding of costumes is a big step forward in the development of my character. It informs how I move, how I stand or sit, and gives a sense of class or position, even the confidence my character has and so today I’m talking with someone who does costumes for a living and shares with us the true artistry that goes into this element of theater making.Since moving to NYC from Michigan, Adam Stocker has made costumes for Broadway, Off-Broadway, cruise ships, and even Disney. Lately, he's also been advocating for workers rights and focusing on inequalities in theater that affect the costume industry. And this was actually how we connected on Instagram, as he was creating posts and messages to find solutions for a more equitable future.Final Five Questions with Adam StockerAfter our lengthy interview on the ins and outs of costume-making, Adam answered five final questions on the inspirations and advice he's received throughout his time in theater. You'll find his answers and more on the WINMI Blog.SUBSCRIBE TO WINMIBonus Episode: Adam Stocker and the Theater Interview That Went All WrongGet access to Audition Stories and other bonus content by becoming a monthly or yearly subscriber to Why I’ll Never Make It.
