| Kimberley Church (Costume Designer) |
| Kimberley especially enjoyed working on "Unto Us" because it stretched her creativity in new ways. Not just a costume designer, Kimberley also sculpts and paints. She also works as a certified Pilates instructor. Sharing the same last name as Peter is no coincidence - she had to marry him to get it. |
| Renee James (Dramaturge) |
| Renee loves the power of a word, spoken well, creating colour, mood, texture, movement, where before there was nothing. She loves words (and white space) so much that she's taken on the role of Communications Director with a women's-based organization. Write on, Renee, write on! |
