Paul Pyant lit the original London production of The Woman in White, with associate lighting designer David Howe tasked with recreating Pyant's design for Broadway. "The lighting and atmosphere of the show has to be precisely controlled because of the projections," remarked Howe on why Look Solutions' machines were chosen for the production. "Previous experience told us the Look Solutions machines were quiet, compact and had no fluid compatibility issues."
The Woman in White features four Unique hazers, which are placed in the proscenium area of the Marquis Theatre. A Power-Tiny battery-powered fog generator is used for a spot effect on stage; however, it is the six Viper NT fog generators that have the most time on stage. These have been customised to have a smaller fluid reservoir. To give the Viper NTs a lower profile the units had their rubber feet and also their carrying handles removed.
