I'm curious what sort of scale everyone here works on, so if you have a few moments, please post your lighting inventory, maybe a rep light plot or something of that flavor.
Here's what we have @ Oconomowoc High School
It's not a lot, but we're also currently displaced, limited only to a 125-seat space, which will be under renovation until October. Once we get our new Arts Center up in late November we'll be purchasing...
What do you have?

![]() Looks to be a nice, workable space. (But I must inquire as to the wisdom of a Congo Jr. in a space with no moving lights, or for a high school in general.) To answer your question, my primary venue, a 16,000-seat arena, has 10 Strong 2K Xenon Super Trouper LTs. That's all. All other lighting is rented and brought in on a per show basis. It's really the only workable way, as each show has different and diverse requirements. It's the same reason Broadway theatres provide only Houselights and power.

Isn't really much wisdom behind it. They decided on that sometime last year before an Ion was available. They didn't spec a master playback wing for it either, but I've requested once the facility is handed over to us from the contractors that we strongly consider purchasing one, but since they don't even know if they'll have the money for risers, I don't know if that'll go through. I know we are getting a Wenger concert shell system though, for a couple hundred thousand dollars, plus pit fillers, but not a hydraulic lift, but that's alright.
It'd be hard to say there won't be moving lights; I know we won't have any, but it will be a roadhouse available for rent with shows coming through which we've contracted in, so I wouldn't be surprised if every once in awhile something intelligent shows up, but it would be maybe once or twice a year, if that. Not a lot to bank on for putting a Congo Jr. in, but mind you, the specs were made before the Ion was announced, though I did mention it to the project managers, but apparently it's too difficult to change something that's already on paper. They outdid us on the sound system. Yahmaha LS9-32 digital mixer, bunch of wireless mic's, speakers, the works. So I can't say I have much to complain about until we walk into the space and I can ask, "Why did we buy ____ when we should've purchased _____?"

We've got a 700-person auditorium at Poudre HS, here's our inventory as best I can remember/estimate it (still new to lighting, so I don't know precise numbers):
Cheers, mate, hope that helps!

Our theater is a 360 seat house owned by the city and provided at a small percentage of the "door" for a community theater. I am paid as a master electrician, on a per show basis. Because I am retired with a decent retirement, and don't want to deal with self employment taxes, I use the money to buy lighting and sound equipment for the theater. I make the decisions of what to purchase, and usually look for equipment on ebay. I look for equipment, that may need minor repairs to get the most for my money. About 40% of what I will list was purchased by me and the rest was at the theater when I arrived four years ago. The theater is just now starting it's 39th season. We also have a small blackbox theatre that seats 60.

Wow, it's already evident: "The size of the boys is the price of their toys" (or something like that).
