    Kathy Kohl - Costume Designer

    Our conversation with Kathy Kohl on January 9th, 2021 Kathy has been spending her enforced year away from costuming reacquainting herself with the world outside of the darkened theater. Her journey to the light mirrors that of many others during this shutdown. Focusing first on long-standing interests in writing, reading, gardening, she has joined online transformative circles and support groups in a continuing exploration of theater safety, community outreach, non-white cultures and history, advocacy, activism. Her expanding circle of knowledge and acquaintances has made this challenging year extraordinarily special.
