Recently, I started becoming interesting in the broadway musical Next to Normal. One of the coolest aspects of the show is the set. The show is based on a family whose mother is suffering from mental issues and the set is like a house cut in the front. They're three levels to the house, but each level has compact fluorescent bulbs in the ceiling. The back area of the lighting is filled with these bulbs and it creates a really cool affect in the house. I watched a video on the backstage of the Booth Theatre, where it was on Broadway, and it said that they used different types of colors, primarily green, blue, and red. It blends together with the back wall. One of the actors was talking about how they use the LED strip lights to blend together yellow and green to make the back wall blue.
