After more than 30 years as the Costume Shop Supervisor for the School of Theatre and Dance and Porthouse Theatre, Robin Ruth will retire from Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹ University this summer.
When you stop and think about all the students that have walked through the Costume Shop and the number of costumes that have graced the stages of Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹ University and Porthouse Theatre over the last 30 years, they all have one thing in common: Robin Ruth. As the Costume Shop Supervisor, Robin brought her costuming and wardrobe expertise to hundreds of theatre, dance, and fashion students at Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹ and impacted countless more students and professionals every summer during the Porthouse Theatre summer season.
A graduate of The Ohio State University, Robin spent more than a decade working in film, television, tours and on Broadway in New York City. During her time in New York, Robin was a proud member of the Theatrical Wardrobe Union, Local 764 of the I.A.T.S.E. Robin joined the staff of Á½ÐÔÉ«ÎçÒ¹ in 1991. She will retire this summer after the 2022 Porthouse Theatre season.
Congratulations on your retirement, Robin! We will miss you!
