RAW processing isn't really scary. It just uses files that have not been modified by in-camera processing/tweaking. The only thing that is really noticeably off is color balance, but the RAW processing software usually has the choices that the camera would (auto, tungsten, daylight, shade, etc.) that you can choose from a menu, and you can lighten, darken, change contrast. When shooting theater productions, I usually don't correct for colors as the slightly warm tone of the floodlights is aesthetically pleasing.
