Regina Truhart will be taking on the new role of "Vice Commissioner of Technology" with the Costume Design and Technology Commission of the United States Institute for Theater Technology.
After getting fit for her new tiara, Ms. Truhart will be responsible for programing an ongoing hands-on style session at the USITT national conference. The appointment was offered to her after a very successful "drinking and draping" (also known as "the found object draping challenge") session held here in Cincinnati at last year's USITT conference.

"You Can't Take It With You" -- building 1930's costumes for the stage
The Opera "Falstaff" gets a new look at CCM.
Last spring Dean Mogle, costume designer and head of the CCM costume area, lead the way to a brand new production of the opera "Falstaff". The professional staff, MFA student technicians and crafts artisans worked hard to build everything from gowns, ruffs, and hats for this fabulous production.
Peggy Ezekiel Awards of Outstanding were granted from USITT.

Falstaff Costumes Win Awards from USITT
Congratulations Starr Slocum Fish! This is just one of the gowns she built for the latest production of the opera "Falstaff". Here at CCM all principal characters are double cast so creating costumes is twice the fun.
This gown, along with the costumes for the leading male character Falstaff won Starr an OUTSTANDING for Costume Technology from USITT Ohio Valley.
