West Side Story

For this production Pendleton wanted to add additional lighting fixtures to their rig so that the whole performance space was filled because of the design choice to remove the theatres Legs/Wings/Drapes resulting in the Stage Left to Right walls being fully exposed. They decided to add four Equinox Fusion 140s around the downstage and midstage left and right on booms to provide lots of side light colour no matter where the characters were performing, this essentially created a 360° wash onto the cast member. Two of our AFX Club Mix3's were placed on the furthest upstage bar to provide lots of backlight colours during the whole show and even a few effects throughout. Then as a direct down light flood we outsourced six ADJ Hex 32s which were essential to show the natural light which would have been entering the set from the sun and were effective for their colour wash during many key scenes or songs. To monitor the production for the Deputy Stage Manager (Show Caller) we provided three 5MP Cameras and DVR which also broadcasted to each technical position and backstage. And to round off our involvement to this production we also brought lot's of Powercon to use for our fixtures, their fixtures and their active speakers.
