Philip Guhl
Lighting Designer - West Side Story

Phil is thrilled to be returning to RCMT after last year’s 42nd Street. Since this time last year, he has once again been traveling the world with his lights: New York, Nassau & Freeport Bahamas, Monterrey, Mexico, Las Vegas, San Diego, San Jose, Orlando, Columbus, Seattle…etc. etc. Though Phil’s heart is in theatre he spends much of his time with his company VIVID Lighting Solutions lighting for Corporate (Farmers Insurance Group, ADOBE, Genentech, Oracle, Diageo); Television (Canadian Poker Tour (Sportsnet), NHL Draft (TSN)); Fundraisers (BC Children’s Hospital’s Crystal Ball, Gift of Time, Vancouver Aquarium’s New Years Eve Celebration); Awards (Courage to Come Back, Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award, Junior Achievement, BC Sports Hall of Fame). In his free time, Phil is working hard to become the “cool dad around the campfire” with his new guitar lessons. Phil would like to dedicate this show to his lovely and always patient wife, Deanna, who always cries when she watches this musical no matter how many times she’s seen it!
