In this episode, we sit down with Jack Knowles, the brilliant lighting designer behind some of the most stunning stage productions in recent years. Jack takes us behind the scenes of his award-winning work on *Sunset Boulevard*, which earned him a coveted Olivier Award. But it's not all about the accolades—Jack also shares some of the more unexpected moments from his career, including the time he accidentally blew smoke into Nicole Scherzinger’s face.
Join us for a light-hearted and entertaining conversation that shines a spotlight on the artistry, challenges, and occasional mishaps that come with lighting the stage. Whether you're a theatre enthusiast, a fan of Jack’s work, or just looking for a good laugh, this episode will hopefully brighten your day as much as it did mine whilst making it.
