The Peter Bullough Foundation has donated the majority of the late Dr. Bullough’s clothing collection to the Shenandoah Conservatory Theatre Division. Working with Theatre Design & Production Program Coordinator, Jennifer Flitton Adams, the Foundation donated several suits, dress shirts, sweaters, vests, and pants, as well as such accessories as wool hats, embroidered suspenders, leather shoes, and silk bow ties. Throughout his life, Dr. Bullough was known as quite the dandy, with an eye for quality and a flair for distinctive patterns, frequently creating beautiful garments with the help of his tailor, Stephan Jakobovic, and purchasing unique items on trips to Europe and Asia.


A patron of the Conservatory during his many years in Winchester, “he would have loved seeing his clothing on stage, put to good use by a program whose work he so enjoyed,” says the Foundation’s archive manager, Jeffrey Albright.


Shenandoah Conservatory presents more than 300 music, theatre and dance performances during the academic year, and will reopen this summer for live in-person performances of Shenandoah Summer Music Theatre’s production of “Grease.” The SSMT season runs from Thursday, July 1 through Sunday, August 1. Tickets are currently on sale and may be purchased by visiting ssmtva.org or calling the Shenandoah University Box Office at (540) 665-4569. Summer box office hours are from noon to 5 p.m Tuesday through Saturday.


The Peter Bullough Foundation is currently hosting its first local artist-in-residence, artist Rachel Crockett Smith (rachelcrockettsmith.com), and is preparing to host nine non-local artists-in-residence on a rotating basis this fall from August through December.

This piece really captures how meaningful it is when generosity directly supports creative education. I remember working backstage in college and how donated costumes instantly elevated our productions without stretching tight budgets. Reading this made me think about juggling rehearsals, classes, and deadlines, when I once even searched pay someone to take my online Algebra class just to stay afloat. Seeing resources thoughtfully reused like this reinforces how support behind the scenes shapes what audiences eventually see.

I read the story about the Peter Bullough Foundation giving Dr. Bullough’s clothing to the Shenandoah Conservatory Theatre Division so students can use real costumes in their shows, and it made me smile seeing how old outfits get new life on stage. It reminded me of a busy term when I even used CIPD Assignment Help to manage my work so I could join a costume group at school without stress. It taught me that finding balance helps creativity
