Default Re: Need help designing Rep. Plot/House Plot!

kfd29, more questions for you. Is this for a House Plot, or Repertory Plot? There's a distinct difference, as the latter is somewhat show-dependent. What types of shows are presented? We need to know what type and how many fixtures you have available. Also, does the 4th Electric have to light the cyc as well, or is there a 5th, or cyclt. pipe? Since you haven't told us about any FOH or Box Boom positions, we have to assume you have those covered. Take a look at SteveB's rep. plot, (may not be entirely current or accurate). Ignoring the grayed fixtures, it uses/could use less than 12 circuits per electric. His theatre does lots of dance, so he has an abundance of sidelight. For you, since you (probably) don't have ladders, you'll need to make do with Pipe Ends.

I agree with all the others, skip the RGBW idea, unless you just want to hang 4-ckt borderlights

over the stage, which worked just fine for fifty years, thank you very much!

Answer our questions, so we can "help" you some more, by asking even more questions. Also, stop by the New Member Board, and start a thread introducing yourself. We'll have more questions for you over there.
