Gustavus Adolphus College senior Erin Belpedio has been selected to have her lighting design display published in the upcoming summer issue of Theatre Design & Technology magazine.
Belpedio showcased her lighting display for Falling Awake: A Physical Theatre Project, at the United States Institute for Theatre Technology’s (USITT) national conference Design Expo in Kansas City, Mo., this past spring. The USITT Design Expo is a juried exhibit of scenery, costume, and lighting displays which occurs every other year. Belpedio’s lighting display was one of 14 selected for publication out of 147 exhibited designs.
The summer issue of Theatre Design & Technology is scheduled to be published later this month.
Belpedio is a theatre major with an emphasis in lighting design. She is currently the lighting designer for the Department of Theatre and Dance’s upcoming performance of Shakespeare’s R&J. She has previously served as the assistant lighting designer for Urinetown, The Lesson, and the Range of Motion dance concert. In addition, Belpedio has served on the Gustavus Relay for Life committee and as co-president of the USITT Gustavus student chapter.
