USA - Dirty Dancing - The Classic Story On Stage has opened in Chicago where Lighthouse Technologies and its rental partner Sound Associates, installed 50 pieces of Lighthouse's P10 10mm LED video panels for the production. The panels have been assembled into a single LED video display, 8ft high by 20ft wide, which serves as the backdrop.

The record-breaking production is lit by 200 moving lights and includes more than 200 automation cues with surround sound. The LED video display is the centerpiece of the production - projecting true-to-life images and live video feedback of the production with frequent opening and closing to allow actors and stage props to enter and exit the stage.

Jon Driscoll, video and projection designer for Dirty Dancing says: "My reputation is built on my ability to put on a technically flawless show every night," said Driscoll. "Most LED video panels can't withstand the wear and tear due to the frequent opening and closing throughout the production. I prefer Lighthouse because its LED video panels are rugged and reliable."
