CTI Anniversary

We Celebrated the 25th Anniversary of City Theatrical

We celebrated our 25th anniversary with (how else?) trips to the theatre on two continents. We took our U.S. team to see Spiderman on Broadway, and took our U.K. team to see The Lion King in London. We had a spectacular time at both shows with crew talkbacks and backstage tours.

The Lighting Archive

I was visiting with Ken Billington last week and we got into a discussion of the Lighting Archive, created by Beverly Emmons. There are two websites you can visit to view original light plots and other assorted lighting paperwork, see videos and hear audio clips of iconic lighting figures like Jules Fisher, Tharon Musser, Richard Nelson, Tom Skelton, Ken Billington and Jean Rosenthal. These sites are a must for theatrical lighting enthusiasts. Click here for The Lighting Archive
