Theme parks, attractions, and immersive worlds live or die by what the guest feels — and nothing shapes feeling faster than light. Lunar Telephone Company designs lighting for themed entertainment that serves the story first: systems that transport guests, hold up to 365-day operation, and still surprise the team that built them.
Themed Entertainment Lighting Design
We speak your language — and translate the rest. You describe the moment you want guests to have; we handle the details that makes it happen. You'll never need to learn what a fixture schedule is (though we build very good ones).
Your budget stays on the launchpad you approved. Transparent numbers from the first conversation, updated the moment anything changes. No mystery invoices, no third-act surprises. When things shift — and in this business, they do — you'll hear it from us first, with options attached.
We're on the mission the whole way. From the first napkin sketch to opening night to the phone call three months later, the same people stay with your project. We don't design it and drift off into orbit.
Fearless is the job description. If your creative team dreams it, we’re here to help figure out a path. "Too ambitious" is where we set up camp.
What it's like to work with us
You've probably seen our work without knowing it:
Meow Wolf's Radio Tave (Houston) and The Real Unreal (Grapevine, TX); Britmania and American Jukebox at Busch Gardens Williamsburg; Rock the Jukebox and TAP: The Show at Hersheypark; Shamu Rocks! at SeaWorld San Antonio; holiday spectaculars including JOY and Christmas on the Potomac at Gaylord National; and NightGarden Miami at Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden. (Link each name to the portfolio.)
The industry has noticed too — multiple Illumination Awards from the Illuminating Engineering Society, and a LiveDesign Design Achievement Award. We're members of IAAPA and the Themed Entertainment Association, and we're regularly invited to speak about how this work gets made.
The flight log
Whether you're a producer with an impossible deadline, a creative director with a wild idea, or an operator who needs a show that runs 365 days a year without drama — tell us what you're building. Moonshots welcome. That's rather the point.
