The centrepiece of the evening was an up-tempo live entertainment spectacle
South Africa - Toyota South Africa celebrated its 50th anniversary with a gala dinner event staged in the Gallagher Convention Centre, Midrand, Johannesburg. The centrepiece of the evening for 700 invited guests - including Toyota management, staff and associates, VIPs, politicians and dignitaries - was an up-tempo live entertainment spectacle with a cast of over 140.

Robe moving lights played their part in the slickly choreographed musical chronology that accompanied a presentation of Toyota SA's achievements since 1961, when the late Dr Albert Wessels imported the first Toyopet Stout pick-up trucks (popularly known as 'bakkies' in SA) into the country.

The show's creative director and designer was Laurence Sale from Inhouse Productions, who asked Johannesburg based corporate lighting specialists DNG to provide the full technical production - lighting, sound, video and staging. Sale and DNG have worked together on many previous projects.

DNG's Allan Dickinson created the show's lighting design which centred around the company's newly purchased stock of Robe moving lights, which includes Robin 600 LEDWashes and Robin 600 Spots.

Twenty-four ROBIN 600 LEDWashes featured in the design, along with eight Robin 600 Spots and twelve Robin 300 Spots. Dickinson also used 14 of DNG's ColorSpot 575E ATs.
