Come join Robbie Butler (LD) and friends at The Underbelly as he discusses the highs and lows of lighting an improv show in a giant-purple-upside-down-cow-shaped tent!
From the South Bank London to Edinburgh Fringe. Robbie runs through the unique type of planning required, the kit specc'd and how the team around him all made it possible.
Other guests include: Tom Wilkes (ALD), Cat Neufeld (Underbelly) and a special guest. After the open discussion, as is customary we will get a tour behind the scenes and take a look at some of the lighting states.
