Never heard of UV filter helping but the experiment is not hard to do.  Seems 
this should be a largely solvable issue.   (I am not an engineer and no nothing 
about stage lights except  can confirm the photographic issues)  The power 
spectral  distributions  of LED's are notoriously peaky and with valleys  
despite the usual 
phosphors used.   The CRI uses R1 to R8 and I have LED's in our bathroom that 
make skin tones look putrid--at least I hope that is the problem.  They have a 
CRI in the low 90's but clearly bad R9 value as deficient in red. 
Some recent ultra high CRI LED's use violet LED instead of blue and R, G, B 
phosphors for a CRI up to 98 or so.  The luminous efficiency is down to 65-85 
lm/W though.  

Spuriously sallow skinned? Mike
