Anything Goes — On Stage

The on stage lighting rig is considerably more complex than the FOH rig. There are warm and cold washes along with some stronger colour washes from the drop bars at each end of LX Bar 1. There are also warm and cold back lights using stronger colours. There is a four-colour wash on the cyc and additional floods are used on the white legs on stage. There are a good number of specials:

 

Mirror Ball for use in the ship’s night club

NY Skyline and Statue of Liberty Gobos for Dock Scene

Breakup Gobos for NY night club gauze

Row of Pin Spots to create front bars of brig

Clouds with split Gel (red & orange) to give sunset clouds

Glass moon gobo

Stars gobo

Lavender backlight for brig

Skewed clouds gobos

Birdies used to light the inside of the brig

 

The pinspots and lavender are used at the start of each of the brig scenes as a staged fade up.

 

Lee lighting gels were used throughout and their colour numbers are shown in the rectangles on the design. Lighting circuit numbers are shown in ovals.
