E2i Design's Josh Holowicki passionately supports the school's theatre in a number of ways - as chairman of the board of directors, as volunteer technical director and scenic designer, and as producer. As the technical director, he's responsible for all audio, video and lighting.
Irving Berlin's White Christmas is a classic holiday show, based on the famous movie. It follows an army private and captain who were stationed in Europe during WW2 in 1944. They are performers and entertainers who do their best to keep up the spirits of the 151st division during the holidays. The show ran on the first two weekends of December 2015 at the school's 900-capacity Brighton Centre for Performing Arts, selling out five of the seven shows.
"We used 55 Color Force 12 units for this production - 36 flown for overhead stage lighting, including 11 to light backdrop cycs - plus 9 for foot lighting and shin busters, and 10 over the audience for house color wash," explains Josh. "The Color Force family is a fantastic product line. The fixtures specifically work best for my designs - with their amazing rich color mixing that is extremely versatile, I can add bold color or subtle warm tones when necessary."
