White Light will this year be supplying 27 pantomimes - including nine Cinderellas, four Aladdins, four Peter Pans, four Sleeping Beauties, three Dick Whittingtons ,one Snow White and one A Christmas Carol. All of these shows, plus many other festive entertainments produced by professionals, schools and amateur companies, are drawing on not just White Light's comprehensive ranges of conventional and moving lights, but also a diverse selection of effects including smoke, haze, UV light, snow, bubbles and pyrotechnics.
White Light is also once again supplying the rigs to two shows that have become modern Christmas classics - The Snowman, with lighting designed by Tim Mitchell, and White Christmas, with lighting designed by Ken Billington. Both shows are being seen around the UK this year in addition to The Snowman's regular appearance at London's Peacock Theatre.
