Chess The Musical
Chess is a musical with music by Benny Andersson and Björn Ulvaeus of the pop group ABBA, and with lyrics by Tim Rice. The story involves a politically driven, Cold War-era chess tournament between two men—an American grandmaster and a Soviet grandmaster—and their fight over a woman who manages one and falls in love with the other. Although the protagonists were not intended to represent any real individuals, the character of the American grandmaster (named Freddie Trumper in the stage version) was loosely based on Bobby Fischer, while elements of the story may have been inspired by the chess careers of Russian grandmasters Viktor Korchnoi and Anatoly Karpov.'

Adamson
For Chess The Musical, we had the pleasure of being the first musical theatre show in the UK to use an Adamson Line Array. This was provide by the Warehouse Sound Services. The Remit of Chess The Musical was to be loud and in your face. To Achieve this we need a system that would give us the clarity that musical theatre needs but also the power that a rock and roll system would give us. We used 12 S10 Line Array Boxes a side and a Sub Array of 8 S119 Boxes along the front of the stage.
