Jenny Tiramani 17听December听2004
The Globe's award winning costume designer

The Globe Theatre on London's South Bank has become famous for its presentation of Shakespeare's plays in an authentic setting. The landmark building is open to the elements and has many of the audience standing to watch. What is maybe less known is that there's the same attention to detail when it comes to the costumes.

Jenny Tiramani has been Head of Design since the theatre was reconstructed in 1996. Last year she won an Olivier award and is renowned for recreating Elizabethan clothes as a far as possible according to original practices. Everything is stitched by hand with meticulous attention played even to an actor's undergarments.

Felicity Finch went down to the Globe to meet Jenny and some of the actors.听
