UK - White Light, a regular visitor to all of London's theatres, set something of a record in early September, supplying three different productions at the same theatre over the course of a long weekend.

The theatre was the Arts Theatre, located in the heart of London's West End; the three productions indicated the many different capacities in which White Light can help light a show as well as its ability to work to suit a production's schedule, however demanding.

The first of the three shows, an event in the theatre, saw White Light deliver lighting equipment on Friday for a Saturday show, then return late on Saturday evening to collect the gear from the theatre after the event.

The second saw White Light's Production team working with PositiveTV on an event in the theatre; the Production team provide a complete lighting service, including design, supply, crewing and more, to a wide variety of projects including corporate events, parties, and festivals. The PositiveTV event occupied the theatre for Monday and was immediately followed by the load-in for the Arts next full production, the one-woman play Catwalk Confidential, transferring to London from the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

For this show, White Light are supplying the lighting rig specified by lighting designer Alistair Grant, working once again with producers Eon Productions and Michael Rose Ltd, with whom the company has collaborated on the musical Chitty Chitty Bang Bang since its debut at the London Palladium in 2002.
