The legend of TRACY THEATRE ORIGINALS begins in the 1880’s when William Gilbert, Arthur Sullivan, and producer Richard D’Oyly Carte were enjoying tremendous success in London with their notorious “Gilbert & Sullivan” operettas. Curious about how their works were being performed in America, the three traveled to Boston, where they were shocked and appalled. Realizing there were no written versions of their operettas to follow, they commissioned George Lowell Tracy, a Boston music arranger and librarian to publish their scores and libretti through his Tracy Music Library, so that Americans could perform these popular entertainments as they were intended. In the 1920’s Ruth Metcalf joined the company and convinced Tracy to add costumes, scenery, and other Broadway musicals to their rental offerings.

Ann Carnaby became the fourth owner (third woman owner) in 1981, establishing a new tradition of high quality rental costumes, show specific props, makeup, wigs, and costume accessories at reasonable prices, to meet the ever-changing needs of the theatrical community.

We are constantly adding to our rental inventory of nearly 50,000 costumes; particularly junior and larger sizes and new shows.

Tracy Theatre Originals is your premier source for theatrical costume rental and special props for musicals, light opera, period plays, industrial and product presentations and other special events.

We also offer a carefully selected array of costume accessories, wigs, hairgoods and theatrical makeup for purchase from our retail store.
