    Large PAR (46/56/64) lamps

    Same LD, Paulie, lit the current Les Miserables tour (and Broadway). Was the head on that tour for a year before I moved on but it has a rather large PAR rig. The entire backlight system is PAR64 as well as a ton of sidelight. She is all about color and intensity (only one gobo used).

    How do you pass knowledge to the next guy that'll fill your role?

    Single fixture type per DMX run

    Never heard that before, nor done it. It would sure make for some stupid cable hods. I have never had ANY issues mixing families of lights on one line.

    State of CA and atmospherics

    Absolutely agree. Sadly it's not a Fire Marshall. It's a school teacher. It's strange coming from a state assigned tutor, but again she is there for a reason.We decided to just cut the effects for this two week sit and bite the bullet. So strange that I've never had this issue before playing...

    State of CA and atmospherics

    A bit of background. Touring with a Broadway tour that has 11 kids. In the state of CA there is a required state issued tutor for these children, on top of the one we already tour. The state sponsored tutor produced a document about atmospherics. Said document is: 'Safety Buletin #10' issued in...
