I talk to Bruno Poet, one of the top British lighting designers working in opera, theatre, dance, and live music.
Bruno has designed lighting for many of the world’s leading opera houses, theatre and musical theatre productions. He won the prestigious Knight of Illumination Award for lighting Björk’s Cornucopia concert - and for the critically-acclaimed Frankenstein at the National Theatre, for which he also won the Olivier Award for Best Lighting Design.
He’s currently working on the new Lloyd-Webber musical, Cinderella. Due to open next year (we hope).
I wanted to find out what he does, how he does it – and how he became one of the best lighting designers around!
Music credits:
Music from the trailer for Giudizio Universale
"American Dream", "The Movie in My Mind" and "Kim's Nightmare" from Miss Saigon
Music from Frankenstein by Underworld
"Hyperballad" by Björk
