We were proud to supply complete technical services for the Richard Pate School, Cheltenham, production of “We Will Rock You”.
Following an initial brief from director Claire Charlton, we designed a flexible lighting rig, able to wash the stage in a vast array of colour, utilising a range of our LED fixtures. In addition, our LED starcloths added that magical touch to the production.
“We Will Rock You”, a musical based on the smash-hit songs from Queen, is set exactly 300 years in the future in a vaguely Orwellian world. Earth has been renamed as “Planet Mall”, and is controlled by the Globalsoft Corporation. On Planet Mall, mainstream commercial conformity reigns, in which Ga Ga Kids watch the same movies, listen to computer-generated music, wear the same clothes and hold the same thoughts and opinions. Musical instruments are forbidden, and rock music is unknown.
We also provided radio microphones and sound reinforcement for the production.
