Special Episode: Jen Schriever on lighting the supernatural world of 'The Lost Boys'

On today's episode, Matt Tamanini is in conversation with lighting designer Jen Schriever, who is taking on the Herculean technical and creative task of lighting what is reportedly the second-most expensive musical in the history of Broadway, "The Lost Boys."

Along with director Michael Arden, Schriever is co-designing this adaptation that is set in the real world of California, but with a decidedly supernatural twist. In their conversation, Matt and Jen discuss the beautiful first-look images released by the production, how important lighting is for a flying effect, her working process with Arden, whether or not you need to watch the movie before seeing the musical, and much more.
