USA - Lighting designer Ken Billington is to present the keynote session at the third annual Stage Lighting Super Saturday seminars. Billington says: "I am always happy to speak at any stage lighting educational seminar. I think that the Stage Lighting Super Saturday seminar is one of the best."

A dozen theater lighting professionals will speak. About 20 manufacturers will be on hand and have technical personnel and equipment to demonstrate.

Sonny Sonnenfeld says: "The programme is designed to educate beginners and new professionals who seek additional training. It will be 10 hours of hard work, fun, and a great learning experience."

The tentative program includes inspiration, stage lighting 101, fixtures, colour, consoles, moving lights, trouble shooting, paperwork, and other subjects. The seminar will take place at LaGuardia High School for the Fine and Performing Arts located across from New York City's Lincoln Center on 26 January 2008.
