The striped suit from An Italian Straw Hat (1964). A giant puppet from The Light in the Piazza (2004). The black-and-red gown worn by Emily Rohm in The Matchbox Magic Flute (2024). Tiny Tim’s (Ava Rose Doty) jacket from the 47th annual production of A Christmas Carol (2024).  These are just a few of the dozens of items available at The Goodman’s Costume Sale, a free event open to the public that was last offered in 2018. Just in time for Halloween costume shopping season, the sale features modern and vintage items from productions spanning over 60 years of The Goodman’s century-long history. The Costume Sale takes place on October 11 from 10am to 4pm (doors open at 9:30am) at 170 N. Dearborn. Items range in price from $0.50 to $300, and visitors are asked to bring their own shopping bags. Only credit/debit card payments will be accepted; all sales are final. Funds raised from the sale support Goodman Theatre programming. For more information, visit GoodmanTheatre.org/CostumeSale.
