Paule's Career

Lighting design is a very technical job but one that also requires sensitivity to language, a good sense of colour, and a liking for dramatic ideas. You can study stage lighting at degree level, but Paule Constable took a degree in English and Drama and then ‘talked her way in’ to an apprenticeship with a lighting firm doing all the simple jobs such as changing plugs and moving the generator, working initially as a follow-spot operator, and gradually progressing and learning from more experienced people. She has worked in lots of theatres in the UK, Europe and the USA, lighting not only plays but also opera and music theatre.
