When the world-renowned Beacon Theatre underwent its most recent and massive renovation, everyone knew that the Grand Re-Opening would have to be something very special. And so the facility's management (who also handle the rest of the Madison Square Garden-affiliated properties) approached one of the world's most beloved singer-songwriters, Paul Simon, to re-open the venue with two nights of performances.
Mr. Simon's management have a long-standing relationship with Lightswitch, and thus called upon Rich Locklin to design the lighting for these two special nights.
