“the phenomenal spectacle …ultimately transports viewers into the intimacy of family secrets…filled with haunted candlelight. Lighting Designer Joseph R. Walls help make this spectacular production of The House of Spirits a definite MUST SEE!”
“The ethereal, ephemeral quality of Joseph R. Walls work is emphasized by lights that make it seem like a young girl’s diary… it gives the scenes an eerie, dreamlike quality and also provides the background ambiance; countryside, sacristy, and torture chamber…all generated by the use of scrim screens”
