Hello,
I am trying to set up my old school theatre, which was turned into extra classroom space when our numbers were higher. Now that we no longer need the extra classroom space, I am attempting to turn it back into a theatre.
The school was build in 1969 and I imagine that the system was installed then. It is an old Ariel Davis system - 8 sliders.
The lights work and I have been able to find some replacement floodlights for the 2 that were burnt out. The lights are installed on tracks - there are 8 of them. The problem is that the sliders that control the tracks are in the control room next to the stage, not at the back of the theatre. There are outlets around the stage however. There are 3 that look like mic cable would go in them and 3 that look like they'd be for coaxial cables. I am not sure what to run to a board or dimmer box. I have attached pictures.
I also know that shows were performed here about 15 years ago, but no one remembers how the lighting was set up.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank-you,
Dawn
