I was asking about storage

Ok……….so - I’ve taken over this theatre and wondering what cable management ideas you all have?! I have some ideas but wondering f if anyone has any “different” ideas that I’ve not thought of?!?

I wasnt expecting to see my old stomping ground appear on here!

Although when I was there the Fat Frog had been replaced by an Avo...

I've been a bit out of touch with the place, but has the council gotten rid of it?

We take over of it at the end of the month 👍🏻

It looks like you've got some Strand SLs there and maybe Selecon Acclaim profiles? They should do you for a bit - you could do much worse (and you'll need a decent budget to replace with comparable LED) if my image zooming-in sleuthing is not too wide of the mark!

Give 'em a clean - I bet they'll serve you well for quite few more years.

Looks like you've got a half-decent internally wired bar front of house. But I wouldn't be hanging a MAC mover from it though! (Not sure I'd be hanging a MAC mover anywhere these days though!).

Your zooming skills are top notch! 

Thanks, yes it’s not bad at all - just thinking about starting to move across slowly - it may well be a couple of fixtures ever 6-8m  depending on bookings etc. It’s certainly useable as it is. 
 

thanks for your input.

Hey @ianknight thanks for the reply. 
 

that’s good news - yep I have a back up system but concerned that visitors might not understand it so looking at trying to find a replacement desk as soon as funds allow. 
 

I’ll keep your offer in my pocket - thanks pal 👍🏻

Thanks for your reply - you’ve set my mind at rest a bit. 
 

yes we’re very excited about taking over it. She’s not too shabby just needs a bit of fresh paint and a bit of TLC. Slowly dragging her up to date - but it’s going to be fun doing it!! 

Hey everyone - I’ve just been successful in acquiring a local “community theatre” it’s a great space but showing its age! Old profiles and Fesnels etc…..all running on 16amp dimmers. I have some MAC movers to fit but ultimately want to start the process over to LED. My question is can I run them along side each other initially and the slowly reduce the dimmers and swap over to LED fixtures on the same desk? Or should I run the current desk Zero 88 Fat Frog for the dimmers as they’re already patched and then run a separate for the LEDs? 
 

I’ve always worked with LEDs when out and about but I can’t afford to re-rig everything in one go!!
