Brian Lehrer graduated from Emerson College with a BFA in Theater Design And Technology, Technical Direction concentration. Going on to later earn ETCP Arena and Theater rigging certifications.

With 14 years in the industry originally as a lighting technician, shop carpenter and steel fabricator. Brian has now been at BNW Rigging since 2016, working his way up from a shop hand to senior production rigger and every task in between. 

Today he runs many of BNW's larger, more complex jobs while also overseeing some of the newer production riggers as they organize and install their own shows. During the slow season that never seems to come, he manages all of BNW’s paperwork, drafting standards, and new equipment specifications acting as the quality control officer to ensure a uniform high quality result regardless of which production rigger is assigned to the project.
