Renowned lighting designer Kevin Adams is set to illuminate a range of performances in the coming months. Adams is currently preparing to light the new Avett Brothers musical Swept Away, and in December he will design the lighting for the new production of Aida at the Met Opera. Other recent work includes lighting design for the opera Grounded, by Jeanine Tesori and with a libretto by George Brant (M.F.A., Play Writing, 2008).
In 2016, the college honored Adams with the E. William Doty Distinguished Alumnus Award.
