“...in the new lighting design by Ken Yunker, the Japanese house, gardens and view of the bay have come alive. Yunker has recreated dusks, dawns, shadows, stars and sunlight so beautiful that Homer’s “Rosy Fingered Dawn,” written some 3,000 years ago, seems to have been the inspiration. Yet the exquisiteness of this production doesn’t detract from the other important things happening on this stage.”

Best of Atlanta-Creative Loafing, 2003
“BEST LIGHTING OF A DIVA-In theater, lighting noticed is usually lighting overdone...Ken Yunker is Atlanta’s exception to the rule. The resident lighting designer for the Atlanta Opera and in-demand bulb man all about town, he sculpts the stage like the Rodin of photons. His carefully shaped shadows turned the Flying Dutchman’s ship into a nautical nightmare. Of Salome’s sky he made astrologers cry. He painted fairy tale dreams with gold and green beams in the forest of THE MAGIC FLUTE. You notice the gorgeous glow of his creations, but the spotlight stays always on the diva.
AIDA-Atlanta Opera, 2003
