March 22 kicked off the state thespians, competition for
West Virginia. Among the students attending was sophomore Jane Purkey. Purkey
competed in costume design in two categories. With costume design, you have two
different designs. You have one that is used in a production put on during
states, and another you pick from a set list of plays given to you.
Purkey received first in costume construction along
with taking home first for costume construction in an actual play.
Purkey is one of two people headed to the international
competition from West Virginia. She surpassed the minimum requirement and
received a superior rating to qualify with flying colors. She will travel to
Lincoln, Nebraska the last week in June to display her designs to be judged.
When forming a design Purkey mostly uses characters in a
play and then adapts them to what she needs.
Purkey’s design that was selected for internationals is based off of a
character in the play “The Imaginary Invalid”. Her character is a gold digger
who married a sick wealthy man in order to inherit his money.
Purkey said, “I designed her as I imagined, elegant, covered
in gold, and just an over the top fancy lady.”
Purkey is often inspired by magazines and television
characters. She takes a design she is interested in and changes it to fit her
need. She often needs clothes that are comfortable, and easy to take off
because of the quick pace in play programs. They also need to fit her actors
body types.
Purkey said, “For people like me, I have a long torso so
they need shirts that are longer in length.”
Purkey is considering a future career in design after high
school, but admits with today’s economy it is unlikely she will be able to use
it as a full-time career. At the least she will continue to design as a hobby.
Whatever Jane Purkey decided for her future we know it is a bright one. Good
luck at the international festival!

Since Saturday I decided to take my training for the next few weeks into my own hands as the current training and nutrition style was a little too much. I have 15 weeks to go, so not feeling the need to be so drained so far out.
