South Africa - Lighting designer Tim Dunn used 30 Robe ColorSpot and Wash 700E AT moving lights to light the first high profile live performances of rising young South African music star Jesse Clegg at the Johannesburg Civic Theatre.

Dunn utilised the 18 Robe ColorWash 700E ATs in the 1200 capacity theatre's house rig, adding another 12 ColorSpot 700E ATs of his own supplied by Gearhouse South Africa. The only other fixtures he used were Source Fours, for key lighting Clegg and his 4-piece band.

"I knew that 30 Robe 700s would give me more than enough options to cover Jesse and his band," reports Dunn, who also brought in his own grandMA full size console to run the lights for the three highly critically acclaimed evenings of performance.

Jesse Clegg is the son of Johnny Clegg, one of South Africa's best known musicians and songwriters. His first single Today, was released on radio in August 2008 and debuted at number one on the Highveld Homebrew Chart.
