If you are just looking to knock their intensity down a little rather than looking for a way to dim them up and down in cues, then I agree with Kristi - put a piece of Neutral Density gel in front of them, which comes in a variety of darknesses, or you can double them up. Or, a piece of scrim material or screen. If they are really bright, you might try a piece of cheap white (or light blue) shower curtain.
