Ian Crownshaw

Ian was Head of Lighting for several seasons in the 1980s and 90s. The first play he worked on was Joking Apart by Alan Ayckbourn, in 1981.

Highly committed to the Garrick, he built up a departmental team, was keen on installing new tech into the theatre, designed some sets, and acted as an ASM occasionally.

He was also heavily involved with Alistair Donkin's Gilbert and Sullivan Society, one of the annual visiting societies to the theatre.
