Hi Rick
I admire your spunk.
Or maybe you are just a masochist.
Having been on both sides of the coin as the camera person going in to shoot a theatrical show and the board or lighting designer for when a crew comes in the theater with their electronic one eyed monster/s that needs
special attention, I know the uphill battle that you face.
I would suggest that you get the lighting operator drunk and that you take over the lighting booth.
As Robert pointed out some time back stage lights vary in Kelvin from 2800 to 3200. Add to that the gels that introduce red and green and plays havoc with stage make up when shot on video camera. Then the reflective spikes off the shiny music instruments.
I wish you all the luck in the world.
But I also know the satisfaction of a job well done.
Your video looks really good.
Break a leg.
