For this John Denver musical review, I chose R358 - Rose Indigo as my color for the backlight wash, which turned out to be a primary element of the production. Throughout the musical numbers, the backlight complimented both the warm and cool washes from the SeaChangers mounted at sidelight and torm positions. It made the performers pop out from the full-cyc projections that are also crucial to the show, without bouncing any light back onto the cyc itself due to low transmission.

THe photos show the use of Rosco 4260 as the cool front light coupled with R378. The windows used R316 to create a dynamic effect of contrast between the warmth of the sun and the cold interior of Macbeth's castle. The witches scene was washed with R4430 and R2004 to give the sense of mouldy corruption concocted by the weird sisters.

Theatre TCU, Almost Maine 2009. Rosco colors used: R83, R64, R60, R317, R05, R132.
The play is set on a cold night in Maine. Each scene is a small snippet of life in the town, each in a different location. The deep cool colors contrasted by saturated warms created an effect of some surrealism, as the show takes on a magical twist. Deep ambers gave a sense of either streetlights or warm indoors. Deep blue backlight and top gobos with R60 gave a sense of moonight as well as the crisp cold air.
