The document discusses lighting design considerations for a play called "Wintertime" set in a snowy winter cabin scene. It recommends using halogen yellow lights inside the cabin to bring warmth against the cold winter outside. The lighting should focus on the current speaker to keep the audience's attention on the essential action. To convey the mood of anger and jealousy in the play, the lighting should use a green color, as red would be too overtly angry. Finally, the lighting should reflect the late December time setting with bright, quiet, dark, foreboding, depressing and cheerless gloomy winter tones.
