Tanya McCallin (Costume Designer)
She has been associated with many important London theatre productions including premieres of works by Arthur Miller, Pam Gems, Mike Leigh, Chekhov, Sheridan and Shakespeare. After training at Central St Martins School in London, she became resident designer with a number of British regional repertory companies. This led to a close association with Hampstead Theatre where her designs include Ancient Lights, Nancy Meckler?s production of Dusa, Fish, Stas and Vi, which was subsequently seen in the West End, Paris and New York, Abigail?s Party, also filmed for the BBC, and Dennis Potter?s Sufficient Carbohydrate, which later transferred to the Albery Theatre.
