Lighting Designs

The lighting design will reflect the mood as the characters in The Weir jump between their happy, lively reality and their cold, eerie ghost stories. This change will be reflected in the warm lights of reality vs. the cool tones of the ghost stories. Additionally, flickering lights and dimming lights will add to the creepy atmosphere throughout the show. While every ghost story will be unified in their cool tones, the specific color for each story will reflect the subject at hand— green to reflect the fairies, no color light to reflect the lifeless woman, magenta to reflect the intimacy at the graves, and blue to reflect Valerie’s sadness.
