Possible definitions for dimelia


limelight
Early form of theatrical lighting. The incandescent calcium light invented by Thomas Drummond in 1816 was first employed in a theater in 1837 and was being widely used by the 1860s. Its soft, brilliant light enabled it to be focused for spotlighting and to create effects such as sunlight and moonlight. The expression "in the limelight" referred to the most desirable acting area on the stage, the front and center, which was illuminated by limelights. Electric lighting replaced limelight in the late 19th cent.
