The low cost LED versions tend to look blue-ish, and omit the CRI (Color Rendering Index) that would tell me how accurate the lighting would be in comparison to the stage lighting. LED's are attractive since they would be more efficient for battery power, but I imagine a 12v halogen system is also viable.

I don't know if they have specific CRI numbers or detailed photometric
data, but there's a company near St. Louis called, oddly enough,
"Super Bright LEDs" that has LED strips in some variety of "white
light" temperatures... I've been a client of theirs for a number of
residential and automotive lighting projects for years. They *might*
have just what you're looking for, perhaps by way of having a "cool
wight" and "warm white" strip, and blending them together... I'm not
certain, but I believe they also have dimmable LEDs.

It don't cost nuthin' to look...
