Press quotes
""Director Oanh Nguyen makes sure that each and every one of Hair’s dozens of musical numbers has its own unique style, incalculably abetted by KC Wilkerson’s award-worthy lighting, a psychedelic blend of multi-colored lights and spinning lasers, hand-held electric candles, and in one particularly memorable moment, a rotating mirror ball filling the theater with dancing stars for “Good Morning Starshine....one of the most spectacular Chance Theater lighting designs ever""
Steven Stanley Stage Scene LA 2009-07-13
""...under the very capable direction of Oanh Nguyen, the whole design, starting with Erika C. Miller’s costumes that cleverly mixes some modern and vintage costumes, yet retaining an overall feel for the 60s; Christopher Scott Murillo’s New York gritty street scene; and KC Wilkerson’s psychedelic lighting design all work seamlessly to achieve the overall feel of a fresh, hip, and fun revival.""
Obed Medina Edge Publications 2009-07-22
""KC Wilkerson's lighting design uses a wide spectrum of colors and is especially psychedelic during Claude's lengthy hallucination-dream.""
