Light Talk with The Lumen Brothers


LIGHT TALK with The Lumen Brothers (And SISTER!) is a place where lighting designers can feel free to express what really annoys them about the industry and the art of stage lighting design. Inspired by the beloved NPR radio show, CAR TALK, LIGHT TALK with The Lumen Brothers features the musings and rantings of David Jacques, Ellen Lampert-Greaux, Dennis Size, Zac Borovay, and Steve Woods. These five theatre artists have been producing and designing the live stages and broadcast events of the world for many, many decades. Burnt out and abused by the industry and the insanity of the profession, LIGHT TALK with The Lumen Brothers takes the rantings of these four theatre artists to the world. Look for our regularly scheduled Podcast discussing the issues of our time. Nothing is Taboo, Nothing is Sacred, and very little makes sense. Welcome to LIGHT TALK!

In this episode of LIGHT TALK, the Lumen Brothers cover everything from Spermaciti to Piss Pots.  Join Steve, Stan, and David as they pontificate about reaching 10,000 downloads, salt water dimmer safety, where to place light cues, personal relationships with gear rental companies, slow cooking at the tech table, popcorn in moving lights, choosing your Relative White color, Balcony Rail tricks, using UV to boost blues, data backup strategies, lighting your show blind, and making the theater smell like the back seat of a Checker Cab. Nothing is Taboo, Nothing is Sacred, and very little makes sense.
