September, 2007 - On Stage Lighting

LED lighting for stage and theatrical use has never been so cheap to buy. It seem like every major stage lighting manufacturer has dived into the LED lighting fixture market while cheap imported lights mean that even a small band or DJ can get a slice of the RGB colour mixing action. On Stage Lighting has a guide for anyone thinking of buying and hoping to learn more about LED stage lighting fixtures.

Another year goes by and the PLASA trade show at London’s Earls Court brings together a world of production lighting and sound equipment to the drooling masses of the laminate ‘n’ Sharpie wearing brigade. The PLASA show is the biggest showcase of the new lighting equipment that allows “lampies” to poke and prod new kit while drinking a bit too much and catching up with old friends. An On Stage Lighting writer returned to the PLASA, after a long absence, in the hope of bringing our readers a sniff of the zeitgeist in stage lighting of 2007.
