Explore the realms of lighting design in theater through my experiences with Chekhov and Urinetown productions. In Chekhov, I gained basic knowledge and improved grid work, facing challenges in managing the front of house and learning monetization aspects. For Urinetown, I delved into more complex instruments like Gobo Rotators, Mirror Units, and Color Scrollers. Front of house duties expanded to encompass house managing and communication, establishing a professional public face for the theater. These connections provided me with the opportunity to showcase classic theatre to the community, work with diverse styles, explore ecological themes, grant designers creative freedom, and adapt styles for actors. Discover the intricacies of lighting design and front of house management, from basic techniques to professional attire, in this insightful journey.
