Lighting Observation #9

April 7th – 7:17pm – Black Box Theater Dressing Rooms
Warmer mirror lights shining onto the room from both sides of our section
Sitting getting ready for the second dress rehearsal of Dog Sees God I have the warm lights of the dressing room mirror shining on me. These lights while also physically warm have always felt so cozy to me. I’ve sat here on many nights backstage of a show listening as the scenes go by and heart beats from anticipation. However, even with all that adrenaline coursing through me, these lights in their soft, orange warmth still seem to wrap me in a blanket of relaxation on show nights. Sometimes I’ve even found myself getting sleepy with all that going, which just goes to shower the power of lights and how they can evoke real palpable feelings in your body based on their qualities.
