Abigail Hoke-Brady is a New York based lighting designer whose work centers primarily in opera and classical music. As a designer she is interested in the ways light functions as a visual score to the work onstage.
Some of her most valued design projects include ‘Pagliacci’ (Seattle Opera); ‘Roméo et Juliette’ (Central City Opera); ‘The Night Falls’ (Peak Performances/BalletCollective); ‘Cosí fan Tutte’ (San Diego Opera); ‘How I Learned What I Learned’ (Playmakers Repertory Company); ‘Portrait and a Dream’ (Contemporaneous); ‘Time:Spans Festival’ (Dimenna Center/Earle Brown Music Foundation - co-designer alongside Burke Brown); and scenic and lighting design for ‘BUST’ (Soho Repertory Theater Writer/Director Lab).
Exciting upcoming projects include ‘La Clemenza di Tito’ with Peabody Conservatory, ‘La Traviata’ with San Diego Opera and returning to Central City Opera for the 2025 Summer Season as the Resident Lighting Designer.
