Thankyou for this wonderful review. As a small business, balancing everything needed to keep the shows running and the business operating effectively is extremely tough, challenging and can be quite lonely. So receiving feedback like this genuinely keeps us going. If you haven’t yet given us a shot to quote for your project then please reach out and we’d be delighted to chat. Whether a simple monitor package or full production set up. Everything is always delivered with a smile, a laugh and a top notch customer experience.

BrassNeck Theatre THE BAND
Lighting design is all about emotion. Sometimes that means subtle storytelling and sometimes it means turning the stage into a full-scale pop concert.
Recently we had the pleasure of designing, supplying and operating the lighting for Brassneck Theatre’s production of The Band: the Take That musical blending theatrical narrative with arena style concert energy.
The rig was chosen and built around versatility, punch and atmosphere by Peter Hargreaves and included;
GLP FR10 Bars
Used heavily for dynamic stage architecture, beam chases and bold concert looks. Their flexibility allowed us to frame scenes cinematically one moment, then explode into high energy pop visuals the next.
Martin MAC Quantum Spots & Washes
The workhorses of the rig. Quantums delivered powerful aerials, special moments and textured gobos while the washes gave us saturated palettes and the emotional depth needed for the more intimate storytelling moments.
Robe 150 LED Beams
Small fixtures with huge impact. These added sharp, energetic beam work and fast movement, helping create that authentic stadium concert feel throughout the big musical numbers.
Ayrton Diablos
used primarily as side light and chosen for their incredible output and precision with an ability to cut through the haze effortlessly, giving us crisp shuttering and a powerful look.
Showtec Pixelbar 12s
Used for low level scenic integration, pixel effects and adding layers of movement and colour throughout the stage picture. These helped tie the entire visual language together.

All programmed and operated on a Hog4 FullBoar.

One of the things we loved most about this production was finding the balance between theatre and live music ensuring the lighting didn’t just look impressive, but actively supported the emotional journey of the show.
Huge thanks to everyone involved in making it happen.

Lee Lard Representing this week…

In this industry, it’s easy to see other companies as rivals.
But the real magic happens when we stop guarding and start sharing ideas, skills and opportunities.
After years of helping deliver complex shows and productions, one thing is clear:
the strongest outcomes don’t come from competing they come from collaborating.
Some of our most successful projects have been achieved by working alongside companies others might call “competition”.
Because audiences and customers don’t care who won, they care who delivered.

Competition might win you a job but collaboration builds better work, stronger teams and a healthier industry.

Now ask “what could we build together?”

Want to see if we can help you? Let’s grab a brew. No pressure. No drama. We might not ever work together but at least we’ve had a nice cuppa and maybe helped each other with ideas and advice. It costs nothing to be nice.
