Unravel the history in the fabric. Clothing is a marker of our identity, a reflection of ages gone by, and a storyteller. The Ebell of Los Angeles presents a one-of-a-kind collaboration with the gifted graduate student playwrights from USC’s Master of Fine Arts in Dramatic Writing program. 

‍

Dive deep into the rich history of The Ebell Costume Collection - our magnificent closet of over 800 artifacts, including clothing, hats, shoes, and accessories. With items from the elegant 1870s to present-day flair, the collection is a time capsule and captures the tales of generations. 

‍

Our playwrights have woven stories of identity, legacy, and style using these timeless pieces as muses. Each 10-minute saga, introduced by its playwright, is a window into a world where fashion meets emotion.

Join us for this exploration and linger afterward for a dessert reception. Reserve your spot today.
