World premiere of ‘Don Quixote’ features Clay Paky Alpha Spots and Profiles

Philadelphia-based lighting designer Michael Korsch selected Clay Paky Alpha Spot QWO 800 and Alpha Profile 800 ST moving lights as part of the rig for the world premiere of ‘Don Quixote’ at the Pennsylvania Ballet. ‘Don Quixote’ was created by Angel Corella, artistic director of the Pennsylvania Ballet, with music by Ludwig Minkus.

The production was staged from March 3-13 at the Academy of Music in Philadelphia and featured a large, two-story set from San Diego Opera. Main Light Industries supplied the Clay Paky fixtures for Korsch’s lighting design. “The QWOs and Alpha Profiles were used to light the scenery and focus on characters or special areas. They also served as stage washes to supplement the conventional rig,” Korsch explains. “The shutters on the Profiles allowed me to control the shape of the light so I could focus onto one piece of scenery and not another.”
