The ballet has returned from successful trips to both Hong Kong and the Kennedy Center, and now we’re gearing up for our Spring season, which runs from May 3 to June 12. After that we get ready to go to our Summer home for a few weeks.

I’ve just finished designing the premiere of Firemen by Tommy Smith, directed by Michael McQuilken. The show was produced by my good friends at Magic Futurebox and performed at the Tank on 45th street. I was really happy with how the show turned out, especially given limited resources and tech time.

At NYCB we’ve just finished our annual run of the Nutcracker; next up is our Winter Season, which runs until February 27th. After that the ballet heads to the Hong Kong Cultural Center for a week of performances, followed by our annual visit to the Kennedy Center in Washington, DC.

We’ve just wrapped up the Fall Season at the New York City Ballet, which has taken up almost all of my time since mid-April. Next up, I’m designing Crimes of the Heart and The Odd Couple for New Players Company, and I’m headed up to Williams College in MA to light Davidsbunderlertanze for a weekend.

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’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.

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.
