Hadestown: Teen Edition

Lighting Designer

ROLE(S): LIGHTING DESIGNER

For Hadestown: Teen Edition at Trinity High School, the lighting design used color to track shifts in world and character. The overworld was defined by warm ambers, golds, and greens, creating a sense of vitality that faded as Persephone departed, transitioning into cooler pale blues. In contrast, the underworld leaned into deep, saturated warm tones to establish its weight and intensity. These evolving palettes reinforced the emotional landscape of the piece, using color as a visual marker of change, power, and perspective.
