World - Robe continues its support of innovative performance ... as a major technical sponsor of the Caravan Stage Society Inc., which presents theatre shows aboard its 30m tall ship theatre, the Amara Zee.

A diverse selection of international actors, musicians, artists and technicians work aboard the Amara Zee (the 'Caravan'). Performances are staged on the decks and in the rigging of the ship, delighting audiences on the shore or river bank with their vibrant productions as the vessel tours the coastlines of Europe and North America.

Robe SRO has now supported Caravan for two consecutive years.

CEO Josef Valchar comments, "Music and performance have been an important part of my life and I think it's vital to encourage others to enjoy and engage with the experience and positive energies. Caravan is an extremely inventive company that reaches out to so many who would maybe not attend a formal theatre production. We are very proud to be involved."

Robe has supplied Caravan with high quality LED fixtures in the form of four of the new Robin DLX Spots, six LEDForce 7 PARs, plus two fog machines.

"Our lighting designers all recommended that Caravan used Robe lights as they are the BEST theatrical fixtures on the market," enthuses Caravan founder and producer Adriana Kelder.

She adds that they were all particularly delighted to take delivery of the newest Robe DLX Spots, which will be in action on their upcoming season.

The Caravan currently works with four professional lighting designers - Lutz Gock from Germany, Robbie Steen and Tom Richmond from the UK, and Laird MacDonald from Toronto, Canada.

The first Caravan show to use Robe products was 2012's Uprising which toured Sicily and Italy.

This year, the lights will be used on Hacked - The Treasure of the Empire which tours the USA and Canada, continuing into 2014.
