The lighting plot for The Great Gatsby combines a mixture of LED and incandescent units in order to have flexibility with color, while maintaining the quality of light needed in a space that has the actors this close to the audience. For the first time, automated profile units were used in this space. These luminaires allowed not only the ease of changing focus, color, and texture throughout the show. But were a key component to providing the visual aid to important scenes such as projecting an ominous pool that Gatsby would meet his fate in, gobo/ animation wheel rotation simulating movement through the city streets in Gatsby's coupe, as the headlights that Myrtle Wilson would find herself starring helplessley down the center of, or being used for effects during the 2 dance numbers, these fixtures served as way more than just lights in the rig.
