Hi, guys I am designing a play that will be performed in a ballroom converted into a theater. I was thrown into this at the last minute. The show plays one performance with no tech, no dress, one day 6 hour load-in and out. I will need to light a stage approximately 22'x15' with a 15' depth and design video. There is no electrical grid to tap into. At all. In the past they have rented a gas generator. I would rather not go that route and don't necessarily want to be connecting rented dimmer racks to a gas generator.
I was considering using all LED fixtures (6-9 ellipsoidals on trees for front light, 4-8 washes stage left and right and a row of strip lights for a cyc. I will do a site visit this weekend and I am really hoping that I can find four to six 15amp circuits to use.
circuit 1: house left 3-4 LED ellipsoidals (750-1000w)
circuit 2: house right 3-4 LED ellipsoidals (750-1000w)
circuit 3: stage left LED washes & strip lights (500-800w)
circuit 4: stage right LED washes & strip lights (500-800w)
circuit 5: followspot (750w)
circuit 6: projectors (yes they also want video)
In your experience, does this plan check out? Is there anything I am forgetting to notice?
