My Project

My students have big dreams. These items will help to Take their dreams and make them a reality on our stage. We have a beautiful auditorium but we have no access to our lighting Fixtures. That creates problems with shadows on faces and an inability to Spotlight individual performers when needed. These spotlights will work perfectly together to help fix some of those problems.

The black lights that I would like to purchase will fill the stage and should provide for a better and safer way to create the black light environment.
