Sarai Frazier, a Bessie-nominated lighting designer, production manager, and artist, born and raised in New York City. Her creative and artistic practice exists across live events, performance art, immersive installations, and theater, always drawn to collaboration and care.

She has a practice in pedagogy started by teaching lighting design and tech workshops for technicians, and over time, expanded to helping artists deepen their understanding of lighting design as well - helping them see it not just as a tool, but as a language of its own.

She’s drawn to lighting as a medium that can hold, shape, and shift meaning — a way to see, feel, and listen differently. She is particularly interested in lighting design as its own expressive form—one that invites viewers to see, engage, and interact, while supporting and expanding storytelling.
