Location and placement of each outlet ​

Last updated January 1st, 2026.

Stage Power ​

12 relays provide power for stage lighting equipment.

  • Downstage Dimmer Pack Control Power- Downstage Dimmer Pack Secondary Power
  • Upstage Dimmer Pack Control Power
  • Upstage Dimmer Pack Secondary Power
  • LED Wash Far SR
  • LED Wash Far SL
  • LED Wash CS
  • LED Wash Backlight
  • Movers SR
  • Movers SL
  • Movers CS
  • AUX Upstage Dimmer Pack

Each of these outlets has local control disabled, and can only be controlled by the lighting console or the web dashboard (but will be overridden by the light board by default)

Architectural Power ​

9 outlets for architectural lighting.

  • Box Office Run Light
  • Lobby Safety Light
  • Green Room Run Light
  • Dressing Rooms
  • Shop Run Light
  • SR Safety
  • Lobby Flair: Christmas Tree
  • Lobby Flair: Streetlight
  • Lobby Run Light

Each of these lights can be locally controlled. They may also be controlled by the light board, but this is not their default configuration. Generally, the first cue of the show will power on all of these necessary circuits for a specific show. After that first cue, the outlets will be able to be manually controlled.

Other Misc Objects ​

There is one Zigbee compatible light bulb in a single fixture in the house.

The House Left aisle House fixture is controlled by the arch network and is not controlled via any other means. Specifically, this is the house light that shines House Left onto that empty space. It is controlled via the lighting console and is otherwise unused at the moment.

Controls ​

  • Lobby
    • One wireless and removable remote located on the light switch at the stage door
  • Green room
    • One remote located near the door to the house which controls the green room run lights, and the dressing room's mirror lights
  • Shop
    • One remote located in the shop which controls the run lights in the shop AND BACKSTAGE
  • Booth
    • One remote located in the booth which controls the single light in the booth.

For controlling the dressing room lights individually from the green room running lights, the button on the side of the outlet can be pressed to power or unpower those lights. The same rule applies to the run light in the box office. The remote for the booth light can always be used to control the booth light.
