Dates Set for Stage Lighting Super Saturday 2012

Sonny Sonnenfeld and Scott C. Parker announce that Stage Lighting Super Saturday has selected New York City for its seventh annual seminar.

At 8am on Saturday, January 21, 2012, the seventh-annual Stage Lighting Super Saturday all-day seminar will take place at Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts in New York City. The school is on Amsterdam Avenue and West 65th Street, near Lincoln Center.

As always, the seminar is designed for everyone involved in stage, architectural, or entertainment lighting. The sessions are not too basic nor too advance, the founders report, adding that everyone who attends will benefit. The intense all-day seminar will be led by theatre lighting professionals, talking about inspiration, training, product, and just doing it.

Approximately 20 manufacturers and technical specialists will demonstrate equipment. Previous years' supporters included Altman, GAM, Martin Pro, Lee, SeaChanger, Strand, and more. Broadway lighting designer Ken Billington will present an inspirational session on the art of stage lighting. Broadway lighting designer Richard Pilbrow will present a session discussing virtual lighting control using various tools including the iPad.

Stage Lighting Super Saturday is supported in part by its media partner, Lighting&Sound America magazine.
