  • 1.  Polar Bear Costume needed

    Posted 08-15-2016 10:11

    Hello friends!  We have decided to produce East of the Sun and West of the Moon for our Fall show.  What we really need to make this show a success is a full sized polar bear costume.  As you can guess, this is not easily found!  Does anyone have a lead on a costume to rent or buy?

    Thanks for any suggestions or show success stories,

    Bobbi

    Check with Broadway Costumes in Chicago. If they don't have it, they can point you in the right direction. Everyone there is wonderful to work with.

    My props master made a polar bear costume for a project she was doing, I think for the city of White Bear Lake.  It is an amazing puppet that needs two people to operate.  I don't know if she will rent it, but I can give you her email address if you are interested.  I've included a picture here of it at night - as it lights up from inside, but it can also just be white without the lighting.
