Hello,

The theatre provides a momentary escape from the complexities of life that I believe can empower, build empathy, and inform. I strive to support these features of contemporary storytelling by creating dynamic and engaging lighting design.

Although I’m originally from Iowa, I’ve spent the past four years studying theatre at the State University of New York at New Paltz, and plan on staying in New York after graduation.

I hope you enjoy observing my work!

Best,
Martin Benesh
