Sweet Illusions: Exploring Colour Theory with Lighting Design
A hands-on activity using coloured lighting and sweets to explore how colour affects perception. This engaging resource introduces learners to colour theory in a fun and memorable way, perfect for technical theatre or design lessons.
Why sweets? They’re fun, familiar, and add a playful twist to a serious design concept. For a more hygienic alternative, you can also use coloured beads—same challenge, less sugar!
What’s Included:
- PowerPoint slides to introduce colour theory and additive mixing
- Printable sorting sheets for each RGB station
- Individual scorecards for tracking guesses and correct answers
Fun, interactive, and surprisingly tricky—this workshop will leave students thinking twice about colour in stage and screen lighting!
Ideal for KS3–KS5 drama, theatre design, or creative arts classes.
