Costume Designer

2025, he/him BFA Drama, Costume Design

Jeremy Pitzer is a multi-hyphenate artist graduating from Carnegie Mellon with a BFA in Costume Design and a minor in Religious Studies. He is a writer first, of plays and screenplays and an aspiring novelist. His written works are strongly grounded in speculative fiction grappling with time on an epic scale, and humanity’s origins versus its future. From writing grew his passion for making: anything and everything. He began in cardboard, hot glue, and paper mache and continues in those mediums to this day. In higher education he has refined greater skills of making through garment draping and construction, casting and molding, mask making, and other forms of sculpture. Jeremy is a dramaturgically minded designer driven by the tenants of creative reuse, collaboration, manipulation of scale, and subversion of expectations. He is also a director of theater and film focused on independent production, community supported art, and speculative fiction as it relates to the world we live in now. You can catch Jeremy twirling with abandon on stages around Pittsburgh as Indulgence: half drag queen, half ancient witch interested in immortality and glamour.
