Wiring and Placement of Wall Sconces
A power supply was installed under the set to provide electrical support for the sconces.
Zip cord was soldered to the terminals of the sconces, then stage pin connectors were affixed to the ends, this ran back to the connection to the edison to stage pin adapter positioned beneath the set.
We successfully patch these connections into our lighting console, enabling dimming control to achieve the desired candlelit ambiance for the sconces.

Side Arm Side Lighting
We attached side arms containing ERS Source Fours and gobos to the booms positioned offstage. This configuration was duplicated on both sides, resulting in a symmetrical setup.
This arrangement effectively achieved a desirable "scrape" of lighting across the set, contributing to the illusion of light streaming through windows and enhancing the overall visual atmosphere.
