Thousands of costumes from years of Perth Theatre productions will go on sale next week.

Theatre fans will be able to get their hands on items during the event, which runs from September 4-6 from 1-6pm.

The sale of surplus stock will take place at Perth Theatre Scenic Stores on Ruthvenfeld Grove at Inveralmond Industrial Estate.

Organisers say the sale is designed to give local groups and individuals the chance to give a piece of the city's theatrical history a good home.

Clothing, accessories, hats and shoes from all eras and productions, and even Perth's famous pantomime will be up for grabs as well as vintage and period items.

Perth Theatre is currently under renovation and is due to reopen later this year.
