Rental Costumes for Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum
Authors: Burt Shevelove and Larry Gelbart (book), Stephen Sondheim (music and lyrics)
Time Period: Around 200 BC, during a spring day
Setting: A public street in ancient Rome
Summary: Pseudolus is a lazy, clever slave who wants his freedom. When his young master, Hero, falls deeply in love with Philia—a virgin living in the neighboring brothel—Pseudolus makes a deal. If he can unite Hero and Philia, Hero will grant him his freedom. The plot spirals out of control with wild lies, fake potions, frantic running through doors, and cases of mistaken identity.

Durable Costumes
Durable Costumes
Our costumes are not brand-new. In fact, they've appeared in thousands of productions (much like the costumes worn on Broadway). We employ a proprietary process of building costumes that will last many years, can be altered easily to fit virtually any body type, and can be laundered without chemical/industrial procesing.
