A striplight lighting fixture is a long row of small lights. Usually theaters use roundels (pieces of colored glass) or gels to make these lights different colors. The unit can then be wired into several different circuits, allowing each bank of colored lights to be controlled by a separate dimmer on the lighting board. Striplights are often used to color a cyclorama, and are usually positioned behind the proscenium arch.
