Comment on How much would it cost for lighting equipment if I were putting on a play at Delacorte Theater? by Theatre Doc

Y ou have picked an impossible subject. The Theatre does not have anything except the empty stage and curtians, an a few pieces of house owned equipment. Each show that plays there, only rents the space and the house owned equipment, they must bring in everything else for each production. YOu see, you don’t put on a play at the theatre per se, you produce the play and then rent the theatre for a chunk of the box office each week until the receipts fall below a certain amount and then you are evicted.They don’t give out that info to the public because of the enormous waste of equipement that is involved in professional theatre. They actually scrap all the lighting equipment except for certain ‘house owned pieces’ such as follow spots and switchboards perhaps, but the regular spotlights and the cable to connect them, etc, would all be thrown out or sold as used as the end of eah production. Thus, it all has to be installed new at the begining of each production’s stay at the theatre. You can only imangine how terribly expensive allt that would cost. Perhaps hundreds of thousands of dollars. All the scenery is carted to the dump when the show closes as well. [who] Theatre Doc

Plants use red light and blue light. Plants do well when you use cool white and warm white in equal proportions. [who] Ralph

Always try the easy fixes first. Replace the bulbs. If that doesn't work then look at the starters if you have them and then the ballast. [who] oil field trash

CFL light bulbs are more efficient then standard incandescent light bulbs. We have over 50 in our home and have saved about 15 %. Also we changed all of our appliances to energy star rated and have saved another 15 % or so in the past year. (as Well as water saings each month)
We installed a tankless water heater in the laundry room, for the laundry and the master bath this has saved us 22% on the water heating costs alone.
Insualation in your home can help with heating cost tremendously if you have an older home as well as good windows.

Just a few ideas

Good Luck [who] Pat
