Associate lighting designer Jonny Milmer said: "There's never enough time to programme a show of this scale and having two desks connected with different users really helped. I was able to programme the show on the grandMA full-size as the cast rehearsed with Martin (Terry) playing back the show on the grandMA light to keep us in the correct lighting cue."
Technical manager Martin Terry continued: "It's nice to be able to focus on the cue points in the script and music and practise these during rehearsals without having to also worry about cue modifications that were done on a grandMA full-size console which was only used during rehearsals."
"Having such a flexible system meant that I could have my laptop displaying a cue list which showed me exactly all the information I wanted and allowed for much easier communication with the lighting team," said director Robert McWhir. Richard Lambert was the lighting designer. Entec Sound and Light delivered the lighting equipment.
