Baseball:

A Musical Love Letter

Opera Orlando

May 2023

For this production of Baseball: A Musical Love Letter, presented at Harriet’s Orlando Ballet Center, I held the title of Costume Designer + Wardrobe Supervisor. My duties included: designing the costumes for 8 artists, shopping for costume pieces, hosting fittings with performers, hand crafting costumes, performing alterations and running the show.

Baseball: a Musical Love Letter is a family-friendly musical revue that weaves together the history of baseball with music from every corner of the American songbook: opera, musical theater, and jazz. Written and conceived by stage director Kathleen Belcher and dramaturg Dan Rigazzi, and led by conductor Chevalier Lovett, this production is an intimate, cabaret-style performance that traces baseball’s early years from the 1919 Black Sox Scandal and the jazz age; to the rise of the Negro Leagues and a celebration of Jackie Robinson; to WWII and the establishment of the Women’s Baseball League; to a final celebration of baseball as the Great Equalizer—a place where all are welcome.
