Bilingual issue French/English. The Festival of Avignon 2009: Claude Régy’s last creation, Ode maritime, the audience’s enthusiasm, and all the reviews! While the play’s director co-designed the lighting, one fact went unnoticed: the exclusive use of LED lighting instruments, which offer that distinctive luminous tone, vibratile – a first in the arts of the theater. Today, theater lighting is on the verge of major changes. In addition to the emergence of a new generation of equipment, technology offers digital control of lighting equipment, freeing it, among other things, from the linear flow of data imposed by the tradition lighting control consoles. From advances in equipment to revolutionary changes in lighting practice, this special report reviews the promising features of these developing technologies, comparing the point of views of lighting designers, technicians and artists. With Kasper T. Toeplitz, Claude Régy, Dominique Bruguière, AJ Weissbard, Jean-Jacques Monier, Philippe Montémont, Birdy Nam Nam, Stéphane Gladyszewski, Jim Campbell
