Jack Holloway discovered his love for the technical aspect of theatre, particularly lighting, at the young age of twelve. He was given an opportunity to operate the lights in his local amateur dramatics society, called "Pratts Bottom Dramatics Society," which ignited his passion for the craft. By the time he turned fifteen, Jack had already started his own company called Lightrics, providing lighting and sound services for small to medium-scale events. This experience further fueled his aspirations, leading him to pursue Technical Theatre training at the BRIT school.
After successfully graduating from the BRIT school, Jack continued his journey and studied a BA in lighting design at Rose Bruford. Over the past five years, Jack has worked as a freelance lighting designer and technician. This diverse range of work has enabled him to keep up-to-date with the latest technology and skills within the lighting industry while ensuring that his designs remain fresh and unique. Jack takes immense pride in his work, and his professionalism guarantees that each production he works on is finished to a high standard.
