Abigail Hoke-Brady is a New York based lighting designer whose work centers primarily in opera and classical music. As a designer she is interested in the ways light functions as a visual score to the work onstage.
Some of her most valued design projects include ‘Pagliacci’ (Seattle Opera); ‘Roméo et Juliette’ (Central City Opera); ‘The Night Falls’ (Peak Performances/BalletCollective); ‘Cosí fan Tutte’ (San Diego Opera); ‘How I Learned What I Learned’ (Playmakers Repertory Company); ‘Portrait and a Dream’ (Contemporaneous); ‘Time:Spans Festival’ (Dimenna Center/Earle Brown Music Foundation - co-designer alongside Burke Brown); and scenic and lighting design for ‘BUST’ (Soho Repertory Theater Writer/Director Lab).
Exciting upcoming projects include ‘Tosca’ at Pittsburgh Opera and returning to San Diego Opera for a ‘Traviatta’ in the spring.
