Across the rig, Rick specified over 100 moving lights - of which 50 are Revolutions. He explains, "I like to be able to light the performers with a good quality tungsten light - and the Revolution fits perfectly. With space in the rig always at a premium, it's good to have the versatility of moving lights, and so, wherever we had a good rigging position, I placed both a Revolution and an arc light sourced moving fixture. That way I gave myself the choice of which to use to light the scene."
For the New York production, Fisher specified Vari-Lite and Martin Mac moving lights and Strand Pirouette and ETC Source Four conventionals in addition to the Source Four Revolutions, which were purchased specifically for the project by rental house PRG. Describing the different productions, Lee says, "The look and feel of each is very similar, with a dirty, slightly grimy feel to the show. I particularly like the Wybron colour scroller that comes with the Revolution, which allows me to choose the exact gel colour I want."
