The Jefferson is a dead hang, no electrics. This means the lighting plot is

what it is, and we're not able to make changes.
 

There are x8 230w beams and x12 Chauvet Slimpar Pro RGBA LED par hung above the stage (x8 for backlight, x4 for backdrop) as well as x2 Chauvet Slimpar Pro RGBA LED Par on the floor lighting up the proscenium. There are also eight specials from the third balcony with 10 degree barrels that can be focused on the stage as you see fit. In the opera boxes, we also have a blue and red front color wash (symmetric pairs), along with four Source4 Pars pointed at the audience that act as blinders. Our beams are generic but

the profile breakdown is at the bottom of this document. We also have basic profiles for ma2 and ma3 on a flash drive in our production office backstage.

For lighting control we have a grandma3 Command Wing running off of a touchscreen laptop.

We have a 100A three-phase service for lighting on stage right. It is camloks with adapters for any gender, which allows you to plug right in without needing an electrician. We also have four 20A courtesy circuits for lighting; two in floor pockets upstage, one stage left on the wall, and one stage right on the wall.

There are three Cat5/6 cables already run from the FOH position to the stage. You may need couplers with extensions, depending where you're building dimmer beach, but it will save you a snake run.
 

We also have a single universe for the house conventionals and beams and another for our LED pars you can plug into at FOH. We have a 5 pin guest line in the upstage center floor pocket. We also have a 3 pin utility line that runs from the utility box at FOH to stage left, near monitor world.
 

The venue hazer is an Ultratec Radiance. We set it at 30% at most and let it run, which makes the place heavily hazy, with great cut on all of the lighting. This level is safe for the smoke detectors, which will be put in test mode for the evening, just in case (the alarm can still sound at higher haze levels, but it won't call the fire department, just interrupt the show). 230w Beam Profile information listed below:
