Stefan Bock is a dresser at the Deutsche Oper Berlin. No office is as close to the stage as his. Because short distances are essential for him during the performance. He has to be able to react to all eventualities. For example, if the heel of a shoe breaks off, he has to get creative fast! His exact job title: wardrobe superviser on evening duty.
Friendly, fast and professional! These are the most important attributes of a wardrobe supervisor. They are the all-round service providers for singers and actors. As a wardrobe supervisor, you get very close to the performers, so you have to find the right balance: Helping out backstage in the hustle and bustle without losing your distance. Quick moves are their specialty. Two minutes for a complete costume change, while the make-up team is also doing its job - a logistical masterpiece, where every move has to be perfect.
