Stoney "d.r." Cook - LIGHT DESIGNER

 

HISTORY

 

I have been designing lights professionally since 1979 for theatre, dance and industrials.  My work has taken me from the Broadway's New Victory Theatre in New York to the National in Sofia, Bulgaria as well as MKH in Tokyo, Japan.  I am a choreographer, a ballet teacher as well as a computer graphics and network specialist.

I design because it feeds my soul with joy and happiness. Plus there are moments along the way, when I just might help change the way in which a person "sees" and "experiences" a special moment in time and space.
