Focus for The Blonde, The Brunette & The Vengeful Redhead

A focus is when the lighting people get together and hang the lights, then "focus" them by pointing, shuttering, rotating, and more to get the desired effect before the rest of the tech process happens with costumes, set, and the actors.

In the center of the light is Norman Coates, the lighting designer.

Here is Norman giving us his rendition of an Apple press conference.

Anya Klepikov, the costume and set designer, looks on from the outskirts. (She will be more visible later in tech.)

Scout, the lighting intern, focuses a lighting instrument.

Robbie Virzera, the master electrician for this show, helps Scout out with direction.


Norman Coates, the lighting designer, looks over his plot as Scout looks up.

He's all about focusing.

More to come later...
