tommulliner Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Hi there, I am looking for a Stage Lighting Hire/Supplier in the West Midlands. I know the likes of Stage LX and PRG have bases in Bristol and Birmingham respectively but I was wondering if people knew of someone closer to home or if someone on here is near the West Midlands? Many Thanks as Always,Tom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianknight Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 *looks over at his profile and smiles* "Worth a look?" Moderation: It took a bit of thinking, but I think Ian means that he can help as his profile contains his work details - Central Theatre Supplies.

Modge Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 what sort of thing do you want them for? There's plenty I could recommend (including Ian above!) depending on what you want to do... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxjones2000 Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 A good west midlands hire company that we use 'regularly' at school is intasoundPA based in Pinvin. There is a good range of kit, all in good condition and they bring an ample amount of wires/consumables just in case you need them. Chris (the man who owns it I think) is very good with helping to rig, focus and sort any issues, and is VERY helpful. Definatley get 10/10 from me!!

Ynot Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Not too close to Shrewsbury, but my local guy (who I do keep plugging here) is Gary at CSR Lighting. I believe several other BR members use him at times, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommulliner Posted October 14, 2011 Author Share Posted October 14, 2011 Many Thanks for your help and contacts guys. The problem with people further away is the delivery costs which are about the same as the hire for the kit (I don't need much!) and so was hoping for some people closer. Thanks again for your help.

whitehousejamie Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 What type of fixtures do you require? I have a decent stock of LED based fixtures including led pars, floods and moving heads. Alternatively I have a colleague who has a large stock of generic and discharge powered moving heads. Drop me a message of you want any more info. We are based near Dudley.

One of the good guys! *looks over at his profile and smiles* "Worth a look?"

Yeah - I did mean that Paul - don't like plugging the day job directly if I can help it - commercial/advertising and all that malarkey! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
