--- title: Braq Cubes® Illuminate Bob's Petite Theater At Oxy Arts description: Several Rosco Braq Cube 4C LED fixtures were installed inside the new Oxy Arts venue in Los Angeles. One of the first programs they lit up was a residency from the world-famous Bob Baker Marionette Th image: https://spectrum.rosco.com/hubfs/Bob_Baker_Feature.jpg --- ![](https://spectrum.rosco.com/hubfs/raw_assets/public/Rosco/Images/page-top-bg.jpeg) [![NewSpectrumlogo](https://spectrum.rosco.com/hs-fs/hubfs/NewSpectrumlogo.png?width=320&height=150&name=NewSpectrumlogo.png)](https://spectrum.rosco.com) - [Home](https://spectrum.rosco.com/) - [About Spectrum](https://spectrum.rosco.com/rosco-spectrum-featured-products-3?hsLang=en) - [Featured Products](https://spectrum.rosco.com/rosco-spectrum-featured-products?hsLang=en) - [Rosco.com](https://us.rosco.com/en) Home About Spectrum Featured Products Rosco.com ![](https://spectrum.rosco.com/hubfs/Bob_Baker_Feature.jpg) # Braq Cubes® Illuminate Bob's Petite Theater At Oxy Arts *Brian Ellsworth is a Lighting Specification Sales Associate at* [*Forman & Associates*](https://www.formanandassociates.com/) *– our Manufacturer’s Rep. for Southern California. Brian shared the story below with us about how a recent Rosco Braq Cube Installation he worked on ended up illuminating the world-famous puppet shows of The Bob Baker Marionette Theater.* I recently completed a project with Andrew Lia, the production manager at [Oxy Arts at Occidental College](https://www.oxy.edu/oxy-arts) in Los Angeles on what had been referred to during the project simply as a "black box theater." During a tour of the space after the installation was complete, I discovered that inside the theater was a residency of The Bob Baker Marionette Theater. [The Bob Baker Marionette Theater](http://www.bobbakermarionettetheater.com/petite-theatre) is the oldest children’s theater in Los Angeles. The puppetry of Bob Baker and his troupes have been on TV and in films, and his marionettes have entertained thousands of children and adults worldwide for more than 70 years. Well, it turns out that they just moved into a new space, which happens to be nearby the new Oxy Arts space I was working on – and that’s how these famous marionettes ended up in residence at Oxy Arts for the summer. > [          View this post on Instagram                      ](https://www.instagram.com/p/ByTQYEWDJE_/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) > > [A post shared by OXY ARTS (@oxyarts)](https://www.instagram.com/p/ByTQYEWDJE_/?utm_source=ig_embed&utm_campaign=loading) “Bob's Petite Theater” is the first local public program from The Bob Baker Marionette Theater following the announcement of their new home in Highland Park. They’re also one of the first tenants to perform at the Oxy Arts space. Programming includes puppet shows, workshops and special programs – and they needed an LED lighting solution that would illuminate them all.

It provided the needed punch in a small form factor that the venue required. It was the clear winner in a pre-project shoot-out with another competitive LED brand. After the shootout, Andrew wrote: “thank you for lending us the Braq Cube. It is a formidable unit and impressed all involved with the shootout. I admit that I was the skeptical one of the bunch, but next to the newer Chauvet fixture; it blew it away as far as output and beam angle.” [![Braq Cubes installed as ceiling lights inside the Oxy Arts space.](https://spectrum.rosco.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Bob_Baker_2-1.jpg?width=1200&height=801&name=Bob_Baker_2-1.jpg)](https://spectrum.rosco.com/hubfs/Imported_Blog_Media/Bob_Baker_2-1.jpg?hsLang=en)In the end, Andrew and his Oxy Arts team installed 16 of the Rosco Braq Cube 4C LED fixtures inside their new Oxy Arts on York space, and I look forward to seeing what they illuminate inside there next.
