So You Are Thinking of a Career in Stage Lighting?
Although the ALPD was started by theatre lighting designers, these days our members work in a many other places too, and they are not all lighting designers either. There are many ways of earning a living in stage lighting and many ways into these different roles.

ALPD Awards 2023
We are now welcoming submissions for our Awards for Excellence for 2023.
This year, there are 3 awards being presented as part of the “ALPD Awards for Excellence” scheme. But in a major change from last year, only the Michael Northen award will be presented to early career lighting designers. The other two awards are for mid-career professional production electricians and programmers awarded through a nomination process.
The Michael Northen Award
This award is sponsored by Go Live Theatre Projects.
