Amanda Todd
Costume Designer
My passion is creating wearable art that creates a story on stage. I love knowing that each detail in a piece of clothing is thoughtful and done with a reason. I love creating costumes that captivate the audience, tell a clear story, and fixing complex issues related to costumes.
I am a fiber artist.
I am a political artist.
I create costumes and clothes woven to tell the message of the oppressed.
Everything people wear tells the story and message they are telling the world, this includes characters in a show.
As a costume designer and artist, it’s my duty to show the message properly through the costumes.

I am a costume designer based in Kansas City, Missouri. I have been sewing for 19 years and have been costume designing for productions for 10 years. In May of 2023, I graduated from Augsburg University with a Bachelor of Arts in Theatrical Design with a concentration in costume design. I worked in the costume shop at Augsburg University as a stitcher over my four years while also taking freelancing costume jobs. I'm currently pursuing my Masters of Fine Arts in Costume Design at the University of Missouri- Kansas City.
