Re: Lighting trusses used in theater
The first visual reference I can think of for visible lighting trusses onstage is Tharon Musser's original design for Dreamgirls, appearing around 1982 at the Imperial in NYC. Quite a stunning design and the 1st Broadway show I ever saw. I was hooked. Actual truss technology does date back in this country to railroad bridges built during the Civil War but onstage that technology did not appear until some touring acts of the 70's and 80's.
