I spent almost all of 2009 working on projects with the New York City Ballet, as I am now officially their Assistant Lighting Director. We just wrapped up our 2010 Winter Season. Next up for me is designing A Closer Walk with Patsy Cline for the Fiddlehead Theater Company in Boston at the John Hancock Hall. After that, I'm assisting William Armstrong at the Mint Theater on 43rd Street on the play Dr. Knock. After that, it's time to prep the Spring 2010 Ballet season. I'm available for work for all of August and most of October and November.

I was just informed that I've been nominated for a New Hampshire Theatre Award for this summer's production of Doubt: A Parable. I'm trying to acquire some photographs of the production to put up. The ceremony is on February 6th.

I've just finished designing my last show of 2008, Bristol Riverside Theatre's annual "Winter Musicale." It's a holiday concert they put on for their community, and it was a lot of fun.

After a productive and busy 2008, I've just accepted a 6-month job at the New York City Ballet as a lighting assistant. I'll be there from January through June, with most of March off.

I just got back from Dallas, where I assisted Matt Richards on A Christmas Carol. Matt and his wife just had a baby--congratulations to them! Next up I have a week off before I go back to PA to design a winter concert for Bristol Riverside Theatre.

I've just returned from Bristol Riverside Theatre in Bristol, PA, where I designed Absurd Person Singular. Gus Kaikkonen was the director. Pictures should be up as soon as I have them.

Pictures from this summer's productions of Stones in His Pockets, An Ideal Husband and Nobody Don't Like Yogi have been posted.

Right now I'm in New Orleans, assisting on the Starbucks Leadership Conference and General Assembly meeting. The scope of the project is enormous, and my responsibilities are extensive. I'll post some pictures as things get further along; today has been nothing but taping out rigging points.

I've finished my time in Peterborough, NH for the summer, where I designed Harvey, Nobody Don't Like Yogi, Stones in His Pockets, Private Lives, An Ideal Husband, Doubt and the children's shows Hansel and Gretel and Cindy Reilly.

I'm about to head to Torrington, CT to tech The Magic Treehouse, a new children's show going on a national tour. When I return from that, I'm going to Tempe, AZ to do Cloudless with Susan Marshall & Company, followed by New Orleans to be Assistant LD for the Starbucks Leadership Convention and General Assembly. Then I'm designing Absurd Person Singular for the Bristol Riverside Theater in Pennsylvania, followed by associate designing A Christmas Carol at Dallas Theater Center.

It's a busy fall. Pictures from the summer's shows should be up shortly, along with a minor redesign of some portions of the website.

Stones in His Pockets opened yesterday as my fourth design of the Peterborough Player's season. The Monadnock Ledger-Transcript said, "...also designed the simple but serviceable set and Eric Larson's stunning lighting provides any additional scenery that is needed." Pictures are available here.

I've just returned to Peterborough, NH for another season as resident LD for the Peterborough Players. This summer I'll be designing Harvey, Nobody Don't Like Yogi, Stones in His Pockets, Private Lives, An Ideal Husband, Doubt, Hansel and Gretel and Cindy Reilly.

Right now I'm about to go into tech for The Drunken City at Playwright's Horizons, where I'm assisting Matt Richards. After that opens, Diego comes to Radio City Music Hall for a few days, and then I head to St. Louis with Susan Marshall & Company's Cloudless. After I return from St. Louis, I am designing 37 Stones for Working Man's Clothes here in New York City. After that I will be in Dallas assisting Matt Richards on Dallas Theater Center's production of The Misanthrope.

I'm currently in York, PA assisting Tom Sturge on the 2nd tour of Go Diego Go, Live! I'll be here until the end of next week, when I go to Stevens Point, WI for a few days with Susan Marshall & Company's production of Cloudless. I'll be back in New York after the 27th of January.

Still running at Manhattan Children's Theater is Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse, running until Feb. 3rd.

Scapin opened last night at the Turtle Shell Theater. So far it's been pretty well received; stagebuzz.com said, "Production values are strong. Keven Lock’s bright and electrically vibrant sets perfectly frame A. Christina Giannini’s ‘70s-inspired (and one suspects vintage, in some cases) costumes. Eric Larson’s lighting shows everything off to great advantage."

Here's what I've been up to lately, and what's coming up in the future.

In October I designed EATfest, a festival of 18 short plays for the Emerging Artists Theatre Company. The Off-Off Broadway Review said the plays "featured some excellent lighting work by designer Eric Larson". In November I went to Geneva, NY and Hamilton, NY as lighting supervisor for Susan Marshall & Company for two performances of Cloudless.

Next week I open Scapin for Turtle Shell Productions; the week after that it's Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse for Manhattan Children's Theatre.

In January I'll be in York, PA to tech the 2nd national tour of Go Diego Go, Live! as assistant lighting designer to Tom Sturge.

I have a new phone number, (347) 267-5043. Please use that from now on when contacting me. The 617 number will continue to work for a few months but will no longer be my primary phone.
