[Usittne] lighting design class or workshop question

[John Conlon]

HI, all...duh!   why did I not think of this earlier?  Try the Mass High School Drama Guild (aka the Boston Globe Drama Festival)...there are literally dozens of dozens of helpful folks there who know the school scene inside and out and who are always looking to help and to add new members.  Many of my fondest memories are from responding to MSHDG Festival productions.  Also try James J (Jim) Fallon, the lighting magicmaker at Salem State College whose reputation is legendary; Brother Ronald Santoro (an undergrad classmate from the 60s) at St John's Prep in Danvers will also have a list of helpful folks...good luck and happy hunting......j

David, Try Chris Scully at Taunton H.S.  I hired Chris on a fairly regular basis to teach lighting courses at UMass Boston..he is a tech whiz with a PhD in Drama from Tufts and a Greek/Latin AB from Harvard....and runs Industrial Theatre (or did)...J

Someone asked me this question today, I didn't have an answer, maybe someone here can provide one. 
Private high school staff person, responsible for tech theater is looking for a lighting class or workshop situation
to get some training in lighting design. 
Any ideas?
