BLOOMINGTON – The ������Ƶ Student Productions will perform Evil Dead the Musical December 7, 8, 13, 14, 15 and tickets are on sale. ������Ƶ students are involved in the production alongside actors from the community and Indiana University students. ������Ƶ fine arts student Hannah Decker is the gore/makeup/hair designer for the production.

“I got involved in ������Ƶ Student Productions because I was taking a theatre production class and told my teacher I was eager to do costumes and makeup,” said Decker. “Lucky for me, the show we were working on was Sweeney Todd! The opportunity was a chance for me to get my foot in the door in the theatre community.”

Decker will be able to use her experience in gory special effects makeup in this production of Evil Dead the Musical. She has been involved in many ������Ƶ Student Productions as costume designer, including All in the Timing,��War of the Worlds,��Sweeney Todd, and Spring Awakening.

“I love costumes!” said Decker. “I’m a fan of cosplay and trying to mimic movie costumes and makeup in real life. I have enjoyed finding personality in characters, like in cosplay, and dressing them to how I would presume these characters see themselves.”

Decker plans to complete her associate of fine arts degree at ������Ƶ, and possibly work in the theatre field or transfer to a four-year college to earn a bachelor’s degree in theatre.

“I hope to work with makeup and costumes but am still deciding,” said Decker. “It’s becoming more common that anything you can do with makeup you can do with CGI. I’m still figuring a lot of things out with school right now and I am thinking about a couple of different options for my formal education. There is a world of options out there!”
