We're Off to See 'The Wizard of Oz' Costumes at Little Lake
onstagepittsburgh.com: At age 23, costume designer, wardrobe supervisor and entrepreneur Dylan A. Blussick’s resume reads like an accomplished retiree’s.
The well-traveled Washington County native boasts extensive National Tour experience that will soon include the Tony Award-winning The Outsiders. But just now, he is proving the Ozian adage that there’s no place like home.

Other than giving me impostor syndrome that I did NOT need today, this article showed where the interest in owning a rental set of costumes comes from. My good friend from undergrad who was the technical director at the White Plains Performing Arts Center, was in Pittsburgh a few weeks ago to pick up the Catch Me if You Can costumes that were mentioned in this very article. When he was telling me about it, I guess I was picturing some old man who had somehow acquired these costumes and barely knew he had them…I’m not sure why. Over lunch we talked about why people would just have costumes to rent out, but from what I read in this article it comes from passion and appreciation of the art and craft.
I also appreciated how much of this passion was put into the design for The Wizard of Oz. He mentioned that one of the goals for the costumes was to capture the technicolor that you see in the films, this was not only successful, but shows how much the story – and the design my extension means to him.
