Does each event that uses your school theatre have to re-hang and re-focus instruments specific to their event? Does this take up a lot of your time? Does this cause conflicts with the other events who need the lighting set another way? Or can each event just enter the theatre expecting the lights to be already set for their needs? You need a Rep Plot.
WHAT IS A REP PLOT?
A Rep Plot is a standardized lighting system, which is versatile for almost all performances and can be quickly and easily adapted to provide lighting for any event from class meetings, speakers, videos, variety shows, band and choir concerts to plays, musicals and dance recitals, while allowing for show-specific flexibility within a reasonable time frame. Having a Rep Plot alleviates the time consuming and sometimes costly process of starting each lighting design “from scratch” for each show or event. Contact Us to find out how.
