Theatre Lighting Hire Services UK on a European tour
Theatre Lighting Hire Services UK were invited to provide major elements of technical production to “Mohanlil’s Daily Delight Show 2008”.
Mohanlil is a big-name Actor and Producer from India and the show was to give quality entertainment to the Indian and Pakistani communities throughout the UK and Europe.
Despite Theatre Lighting Hire Services UK producing over 300 events a year in the UK, this was to be team’s first International tour.
Theatre Lighting Hire Services UK Provided
Theatre Lighting Hire Services UK were charged with the job of providing the rigging, lighting, pyro, video and transportation for the tour.
The tour featured dates in Manchester, Nottingham, Bristol, Newcastle, London, Switzerland, Ireland, Germany and Austria.
The show had a mixture of different styles of performances, so versatility was key.
As such a large moving light rig was provided featuring sixteen Robe 575AT and 700AT fixtures. In addition, 48 PAR cans were used for stage flood.
Video
Video consisted of SXS’ latest investment of a Sanyo XF45 10k lumen projector. This was used to project onto a 6m wide cyc screen.
Management
While consideration was given to the idea of sourcing local services in the European countries, the team decided that a tour of the same rig would be better.
As such a team of Theatre Lighting Hire Services UK technicians travelling between all ten events with a truck following closely behind.
The tour was a massive success and the Theatre Lighting Hire Services UK team’s international and open-minded approach position them well for more international events.
In particular, the team felt that they could offer an excellent service to tours coming to the UK.
New Services
“Having looked at sourcing services locally in different countries, it made me realise that having a point of contact in each country with local knowledge, large in-house kit stocks, and a can-do approach would be an indispensable resource for any tour manager.” Theatre Lighting Hire Services UK Managing Director Johnny Palmer reflects.
“As such we are now offering our experience, equipment and local knowledge to international tours visiting the UK. We are confident that, with our experience, equipment and quality staff, we can offer a great-value and stress-free solution to UK tours.”
