Stage Lights!
Okay, almost all of these pictures are Colortran. The only Colortran products we actually use are their Status 24/48 control board, and their i series dimmers.

Our lightboard. It's a pretty poor Colortran Status 24/48. But hey, it works.

This is a Colortran Ellipsodial, or Leko. We don't use any made by Colortran, but this is a good example. This is a 50 degree leko.

Another leko. This is a 5 degree leko. Ellipsodials are classified by the degree at which light spreads from the barrel. So this one obviously has a smaller spread than the 50 degree leko to the left.

This is a Colortran Fresnel. We hang fernels mostly on the downsatge fly bar. They give a nice soft wash of light, sometimes we use them for color, but they cannot be tightly focused.

These are Cyc lights made by, surprise! Colortran. They are almost always geled and used to give a color wash on a cyc, often to suggest water/sky/etc.

A scoop light made by colortran. Often used to give a color wash to a cyc or set piece. Atleast, thats what we have used them for.

Our dimmer...it's essential a giant circuit breaker that trips at 25 amps, and only supplies power to our lights.

These dimmer packs go into our dimmer. Each dimmer pack controls 2 channels.

USHIO lamps. All of the lamps we use in our S4s, our Altmans, and our fresnels are made by USHIO.

Our own crappy strip lights...All these photos of the lights in our audtiorium are courtesy of Mike Murfy

Another Super-Awesome fresnel

These are our source four stage right lekos.

Our actual board...it's kind of beaten, a little worn, but it's ours, and we love it.

A S4 Leko, hung in the catwalk.

Crazy angles on the light board.

Stella! Our trusty, old, stiff, powerful and gel-filled follow spot. She's currently in the green room, since we needed the extra room for les meserables.

One of those goofy sound kids hanging out by our wicked cool down stage fly bar.

Double Altmans, ready to rock. Hung side by side in the catwalk, these are probably aimed at seperate areas.

Double Source 4s...like the two Altmans, but way awesomer and newer.

Some s4 lekos just chillin' in the coves. They are wont to do just that when we aren't calling on them to light off stage areas, or eliminate shadows in a wash.

Our downstage fly bar, as seen from downstage.

This is good old Harold, dimmer than stella, but, much more agile.

Our house lights and hi-intesities.

A toally awesome picture Murfy took lying on his back looking at the midstage strips. It clearly illustrates the red/white/blue lights.

Another fresnel from another angle. These are pretty worn looking.

An "Old Skool Altman, Yo" This is an excellent shot to show perspective. You can clearly see the tiny dancers whom live inside the auditorim through the window in the catwalk.
