#76 Jane Cox

We are rounding out 2017 with episode #76 and a fantastic chat with two-time Tony Nominee, Jane Cox! Jane has exploded a lot in the past couple years with her lighting designs for such diverse shows as 'The Color Purple', 'Jitney', 'Amélie', and 'Machinal' and she's chatting about all of them. She tells us about her long-standing relationship with John Doyle and their collaboration on shows like 'Color Purple', 'Road Show', and 'Allegro' as well as her projects with Sam Gold like 'The Flick' and the recent 'Othello', which saw her trying to light an enclosed army bunker with zero conventional theatre lights. Cory and Jane also chat about her new role as the head of the Princeton theatre department, how she's using that position to help create more diverse creative teams, and her path from Dublin to New York. And stick around till the end to hear how she ended up touring with Bob Dylan!
