My friend Shosh Copley, who has died aged 86, was part of the team creating a revolution in theatre in the 1960s with Richard Pilbrow’s company Theatre Projects, as the professions of lighting, sound and theatre design consulting were founded in the UK. Among the shows she worked on as a stage manager were Blitz! (1962), A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum (1963), Fiddler on the Roof (1967) and Cabaret (1968), all produced by Theatre Projects with Hal Prince. Her friendship with Pilbrow continued for 60 years and she was involved in editing his groundbreaking book Stage Lighting Design (first published in 1970 as Stage Lighting).
