The Victors - the first to enter South Africa - are installed in the largest of the venue's three auditoria, the 1487-seat main Opera Theatre, where upcoming shows include Le Grand Cirque Fantazie, African Songbook, the Cape Town International Ballet Competition and Mamma Mia!.
Senior lighting operator, Nicolas Tilney comments, "Robert Juliat has fantastic equipment with superb R&D. Their followspots are extremely user-friendly with the placements of their controls. The followspots have a general feeling of high quality. From what I had read and seen I knew what I wanted and what I would get from RJ. There was no reason to compare them with any other products."
Robbi Nassi from Electrosonic adds, "Robert Juliat is renowned for its impeccable quality, reliability and superb optics, and their Victor 1800W MSR followspot offers hot restrike ignition and a high performance double condenser optical system. We are pleased to say the Victors ordered by Artscape were the first to be landed in the country."
