Aaliyah Stewart (she/they) takes us through the lx start-up process for a show at St.Ann’s Warehouse! This show uses fog, haze and battery-operated, wirelessly-controlled practicals which are shown in the video. Aaliyah Stewart is a New York native theater worker. She participated in the performing arts all throughout her public schooling but with her interest in playwriting and directing led to an alternative career path. Aaliyah was apart of the first cohort of fellows for Roundabout Theater Company’s ‘Theatrical Workforce Development Program’ where she chose to focus on lighting and carpentry work. Through their support she became the inaugural Derek Lloyd Fellow at Performance Space New York and connected with many more theater spaces in the city. She most notably works at St Ann’s Warehouse as an overhire electrician and seasonal light board operator. She’s a fan of stand up comedy and lying down when her body needs it.

Liv Grasso (she/her) is a freelance electrician who takes us on a day in her life prepping the new ‘Black Swan’ musical. For those who aren’t familiar with this part of the electrics process, shop prep is when members of the electrics team goes to the shop before load-in to prep the units.
