This will be the first ever comprehensive handbook on nearly every aspect of lighting technology, design, and the professional practice of lighting design. Richly illustrated with hundred of photos and lighting plots, including a 16-page colour insert demonstrating the principles of colour in lighting design. Lee Watson and his Lighting Design Handbook were both ahead of their time and behind the times. A brilliant Lighting Designer Lee's credits spanned 15 Broadway productions in the mid 1950s and early 1960s and then brought the art of lighting design to Operas, Industrial shows, and the Seattle World's Fair. If you are looking for a book on how to program modern moving light shows avoid this book as it is way behind the time! While the moving and blinking light shows popular today existed when Watson created this handbook, they were relegated to providing the visual eye candy associated with fairly boring music. I was fortunate enough to design scenery for several productions where Lee Watson provided the lighting design. I know from that experience how clearly his Handbook takes you through methods and examples of how lighting has become an expressive art form. Also, as a contemporary of most of the 20th Century Lighting Designers he also includes ideas and thoughts from these skilled professionals to stimulate your imagination. Watson was born in Charleston, Illinois and is a graduate of the University of Iowa. After military service that included fighting in the Battle of the Bulge, where his left hand was paralyzed,[1] he returned to the US and received a Master of Fine Arts from Yale University in 1952.7 Lee often spoke of his Yale classmate, Lighting designer Tharon Musser and struggling to survive in New York, "eating oranges that fell from fruit trucks."[2] Watson designed lighting for 42 Broadway productions,6 from 1955-1961. Watson's first Broadway design was Harbor Lights which opened on October 4, 1956. Watson was lighting designer for the Tony award-winning world premiere of The Diary of Anne Frank alongside Tony Award-winning Scenic designer Boris Aronson and Tony award-nominee Susan Strasberg as Anne in 1956. Other noted designs included the world premiere of Arthur Miller's A View from the Bridge with award-winning actor Richard Harris (1956), and A Moon for the Misbegotten at the now-demolished Bijou Theatre (1956).6 7 The Internet Broadway Database (IBDB) notes that Watson also designed Girls of Summer and Protective Custody in 1956, the musical review Mask and Gown, The Cave Dwellers, Miss Isobel, and the musical comedy Portofino in 1957. Lighting Designs in 1958 included the musical comedy review The Next President for which he is also credited as Scenic Designer, The Night Circus and Suddenly Last Summer off-Broadway at the York Playhouse with Anne Meacham. In 1959, he designed The Legend of Lizzie. 1960 brought A Lovely Light (also Scenic Design), The Importance of Being Oscar (also Scenic Designer), and in 1961, Do you Know the Milky Way?[3] For 12 years, he lighted numerous Off-Broadway productions and worked in New York City with CBS network TV and other television groups.7 His lighting credits include over 60 operas, The Seattle World's Fair, The Cincinnati Ballet, regional theatres, industrial shows, and many architectural projects.6 The Internet Movie Database shows that Do you Know the Milky Way? was actually a documentary short directed by Colin Low.[4] Watson is listed in the IMDB as the lighting director in 1951 for one of the first episodes of the 1950s game show Down You Go, filmed in Chicago for the Dumont Television Network.[5] Watson taught lighting design at Purdue University in the graduate scenography program and undergraduate theatre core until 1989. His students remember his precise questions about a project's clues as to the design needed.5 The dancer Loie Fuller was a favorite subject when describing the integration of light with performance.10 Watson died at home in Lafayette, IN in 1989 after a long struggle with Leukemia.5 After his death, a bright, periwinkle bowtie was attached to the lighting grid in the (now defunct) Experimental Theatre in Stewart Center on the Purdue campus.5 He was survived by his parents, Dallas V. and Hazel Dooley Watson of Charleston.7 Watson served on the Board of Directors of the International Association of Lighting Designers and of United Scenic Artists local #829 in New York City. He was formerly president of the United States Institute for Theatre Technology (1980–82)[6] and a USITT Fellow, as well as holder of a USITT Founders' Award. The Watson Memorial Scholarship Endowment Fund in memory of Dallas, Hazel and Leland Watson is given by the Hazel Watson Scholarship foundation, which was established through private contributions as a tribute to Mrs. Hazel Watson, one of Coles County's most prominent community leaders,9 and is offered to a student who is currently accepted and enrolled at Eastern Illinois University with a major of study in business, political science, or theatre with a preference given to theatrical lighting.8 Watson spent his final years revising two books, one on the practice of lighting design and also the history. Watson lamented that his publishers had asked him to separate the history books into smaller projects, which he agreed to do, then ended agreements with several publishers. Watson worried on more than one occasion that his parents, who were his only living family, would dispose of all the history materials, stacked neatly with hundreds of photos in his Purdue office. At the time of his death, the history was not published.[7] Terms of Sale: 100 % Customer Satisfaction is our Goal. Please contact me if you are not satisfied with your order in any manner.

One mounted on a boom in the stage left entrance and the other hung on a boom in the stage right entrance. Notice the edges of the figure are well lit, but the front of the body is in shadow.

  • View the Wolves Playwise As A
    20 | 21 SEASON by Sarah DeLappe A NOTE FROM THE ARTISTIC DIRECTOR I am humbled to, at long last, bring you Sarah DeLappe’s The Wolves. This Pulitzer finalist has had a long-delayed journey to the PTC “stage” which of necessity is now in your own homes. We are excited for you to discover how this new medium can continue to bring wonderfully written plays into your life, even as we wait for the opportunity to gather again. The play, a Relentless Award and Obie Award-winner features some of the freshest, most authentic dialogue spoken by young people today. There might not be a more urgent time to delve more deeply into the complexities of difference. In The Wolves, we see - even more clearly now - how individuals with vastly different backgrounds and perspectives can make up a TEAM that shares common goals. The young women in The Wolves start the play with casual banter that careens from banal to absurd to deeply personal. Hearts are broken, loyalties tested, spirits renewed. When an event occurs that challenges their belief systems, our characters learn to reach out to those they love, or loved, in a new way - even those that have hurt them. Their triumphant story encourages us to imagine what our own path to understanding might look like. We hope audiences are moved by their capacity for strength, forgiveness, and empathy. It feels like the right time to share these stories of resilience, hope and renewal. Philadelphia Theatre Company’s mission is to produce, develop, and present entertaining and imaginative contemporary theater focused on the American experience.
