It should be relatively easy to wire a light off the same circuit that powers work lights in the grid, but have the receptacle at stage level. (I'd suspect if it were on a separate circuit it would become conveniently forgotten.)<br>
<br>
I would suggest a backlit sign saying "Workers on grid" (all caps) on either side of the stage. Like an "On Air" sign for a radio station. Sized appropriately for your stage dimensions.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I’d like to have some sort of on-the-stage-floor-level light that can be turned on when there are people in the grid overhead. I think a strobe or even police car bubble like light would be an unwelcome distraction,
yet I’d like it to be a strong enough presence that people know it’s on.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
