When A show closes, what happens to all the costumes, sets and wigs? Are they kept in warehouse or sold?

It depends, Greg. Sometimes a costume company will buy up the costumes. There are times when the sets are taken to a dump and burned and other times when they are put into storage for tours and summer stock. Both times that out local summer stock theater did HELLO, DOLLY! they used Oliver Smith's original sets.
