What's in a name? In Stage Left Lux's case there's a lot!

Stage Left Lux was born from a desire to create unique feature lighting and trying to do the right thing for planet too.

Our aim is to design and make creative lighting designs using upcycled and repurposed materials and to save waste from landfill by restoring, fixing and repairing broken and damaged lamps and light fixtures.

Where did the name come from?

The first lamp that we restored was an old theatre light that was found in a local antiques shop, I took the lamp home, rewired it and before long people were contacting me asking if I could make lamps for them.

The business name had to be just as dramatic as the theatre light that started it. I toyed with lots of different ideas and eventually settled on Stage Left, this is a play on Stage Left-Overs reflecting our upcycling and repurposing operations. Stage Left is a theatrical term meaning the audiences right-hand side as they look at the stage.

Lux is a Latin term which is used to describe the brightness of light.

And coupled with our slogan - Lighting Your Way - this means you can have it your way, we can work with you to design and build a bespoke custom-made theatre light to suit your style.
