Barbara Fulton – Head Dressings Anyone??
Imaginative! Creative! Resourceful! These adjectives describe Barbara's resolve when it
comes to implementing an idea, look, or impression. Highly inventive her entire life, she began
as costumer for summer neighborhood garage theater productions. Later she studied clothing
design at Oklahoma State University where pattern drafting, design, and construction of a period
ball gown was modeled throughout Oklahoma during the Centennial.
For several years she costumed and performed with 'The Not Ready For Primetime Players', a
secular specific seasonal theatrical group. Barbara also participated many years in the Society
for Creative Anachronism where she transformed herself into the 1400's Lady Phoebe
Temperence de Hotham.
More recently you might find Barbara lending her creative talents in the costume workroom of the
Town & Gown Theater tailoring, making alterations, perhaps mending a mishap, painting tatoos
on someone, or just doing what needs done.
