UK - The Sundial Theatre in Cirencester has upgraded its Robe moving light stock with the addition of four Robe ColorWash 750 AT Tungsten fixtures. The theatre is a busy producing and receiving house, and the fixtures - supplied through Bath-based Enlightened Lighting - immediately went into action for the opening date of comedian Michael McIntyre's UK tour.

The new lights were specified by Sundial technical manager Andy Webb, who wanted a warm colour temperature fixture to blend in with the generic rig and to contrast with their discharge sources. "It was a logical step. In the past, to deal with the need for tungsten washes, we have had to hire ColorWash 575E ATs and use the CTO correction."

For the McIntyre show, the ColorWash 750 AT Tungstens were used to up-light 4 sections of gauze dressing the stage space.

Webb will be utilising these, plus eight more, on Disney's High School Musical, a large upcoming production that he is both designing and producing. His plan is to use them for the main FOH cover and also for back lighting, and they will be part of a much larger Robe rig that will be installed for the show.
