Anna Nichols comes to Studio
Roanoke as a Technical Production Assistant, which includes such activities as

anything else. Anna holds a Bachelor’s from Emory & Henry where she majored in
Theatrical Production and Design with an emphasis in lighting and did quite a
bit of study in studio arts. She interned at Barter Theatre in 2009 in the
electrical department, and interned with Bandit Lites during July of 2008 and
October of 2009.
What do you like about the technical side of theatre?
Instant
gratification! I love working with my hands, getting covered in sawdust and
paint, and being able to stand back at the end of the day and see the progress
I’ve made. I really love to design because there is so much creativity involved.
Lighting is so interesting to me because it can be striking or subtle and still
really affect the way an audience feels about a scene.
If you could choose any play at any theatre, what would you most like to work
on?
I’d like to work on
any kind of modern or abstract piece -- anything that would let me use really
intense colors and interesting patterns and textures. I think I’d have the most
fun with dance pieces and concerts.
What do you hope people say about you?
That I’m
interesting, creative and fun to work with. Maybe even talented!
What do you think people say about you?
That I like wombats and
have too much energy.
