I don't have a clear vision from the director other than make it look like modern audiences expect period lighting to look like, so having a couple of different wild and crazy thoughts. Every fixture listed is lamped with halogen (750W or 1KW), and I do not have the funds to hunt down sufficient quantities of incandescents for the fixtures than can accept them.
Part of me wants to try something different and off the wall, the other part of me just wants to toss the rep plot back up so I can concentrate on mixing the show instead of trying new and different lighting stuff. Right now, I'm Light Designer, Show Electrician, Sound Designer, A1, A2, and light op. Hopefully not adding followspot op to the hat list.
Fixture Option 1.) Use as many 360's as can be made to work, filling in with 360Qs as needed, with 165Q or 175Qs. and some 50's vintage 8" Kligel fresnels for downlight.
Fixture Option 2.) Go with 8" Altman and Kliegel fresnels for front light, 6" Altman for downlight
Fixture Option 3.) Rehang "standard" (most light folks try to avoid touching any lights if at all possible, I don't care/mind and am leading off the season with all lights struck for cleaning) 360Q front wash with Source 4 specials and 65Q downwash.
Gel Option 1.) Roscolene + Lots of Heat Shield. I've got a swatch book and Rosco still in theory makes it, so I could light it using "classic" colors.
Gel Option 2.) Roscolux, but restrict to just the two digit ones and equivalant frosts to what is in roscolene book.
Gel Option 3.) Sky's the limit, Lee, Apollo, Gam, Roscolux, etc.
