I am working at a small theatre with a show about to open in 24 hours. At our rehearsal last night all of my lights kept dimming then brightning and there was nothing that we could do to stop this from happening. Any suggestions as to what could be causing this problem? The board we are using is Leviton I do not know off hand what make the dimmer rack is. ths is in a school and could very possibly be oringinal equipment. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Some possible troubleshooting suggestions:
1. Check to see if you're running a chase or some other cue in your board.
2. Check to see if the power is stable.
3. Does this happen to all fixtures at once? Is it random? Uniform?
This happens to all fixtures at once. It is random but it happens frequently. In the past the lights would occasionally dim now they are doing it more often which is distracting to the actors as well as audience.
