Last night, I attended a drag queen show in a club in Long Beach. I was surprised that they had a whole lighting system set up just because I haven't really thought about places other than theatres having them. Lights were hanging from the roof and there was a light board operator and even a spotlight operator! This is a great example of lighting designers expanding beyond theatre! The lights had pink and blue gels creating a fun, feminine, and youthful atmosphere for the show. There was almost not too many lights on so the house was more subdued while waiting for the performances to start. Lighting designers work is everywhere!
