Carry On have worked with P&O right from their first productions performed by the ‘Ents teams’ way back in the 70’s.
Since then we have watched as productions have evolved to 13 professional performers per cast!
What is excellent about being there right from the beginning, is we have improved our service year on year (and there have been a few years now!) From learning which fabrics stand the test of time to which patterns suit performers body shapes and most importantly, knowing exactly what audiences love to see up there.
With P&O we have designed full shows, as well as working with designers and workshopping drawings for the perfect final garments. Carry On can provide all elements of costume production including head-dresses, hats, tailoring, showgirl backpacks, wigs, shoes and we have even make the odd light up cod-piece!
