Fancy Dress and Costume Hire
With a wide selection of quality fancy dress and period costumes at the Chequer Mead Fancy Dress and Stage Costume Hire, ranging from Roman to Medieval, and from 1980’s to Regency, we have a great selection of costumes for all occasions.
Situated behind the theatre, the Costume Store is operated by a dedicated group of volunteers, all accomplished seamstresses who have been associated with theatre and costumes over the years and who offer a friendly and personal service.
Fancy dress is available for hire for themed parties and stage costumes are available for plays, musicals, community events and school performances for a longer term hire or as required.
Prices start from just £5!
The Costume Store is open on Saturday mornings from 10.00 am till 1.00 pm. Special appointments can be made for amateur dramatic societies, community groups and other group events outside of these times, please just ask.
