Backstage Blues
Due to being unable to use blues during tech because of the SM Prompt Desk position, Neon Flex battens from the LX store were hung and put in a blue colour in the US + DS crossover area to provide light backstage.
Tree Trunk
The tree trunk piece contained 3 x LED Birdies, 1 x Martin RUSH Par, and a Micro Rocket Smoke Machine. A breakout box was created to run the 3 x Birdies off of 1 5pin LED QolorFLEX cable. This took the RGBW output and split it into 4 x 4pin XLR sockets to run the LED Birdies. A custom thin PowerCON cable was created so that the cables running to the trunk were as small as possible. In the end a single DMX, PowerCON, and 5pin QolorFLEX cable were run to the trunk. This was then taped over and painted by scenic.
Trapeze + Drop Bars
Due to the tight space in the wings, Channel 24 was rigged on a trapeze bar. This was created with a scaff bar and a fixed scaff clamp (clamped to Chandler LX bar) and a fixed scaff clamp at the bottom to create a vertical bar for the Source 4 JR.
Due to the large tree top piece suspended above the set, a lot of fixtures had to be dropped so that they could be focused without hitting the tree top. Threaded rod was used to drop generics and then double hook clamps with short scaff bars were used the hang the movers.
Rosco I-Cue
A Rosco I-Cue was used to turn a S4 Profile into a moving spot. The I-Cue uses a DMX controllable mirror to remotely focus the beam around the stage. A DMX Iris was also used to add more functionality.
