Johannesburg, South Africa based MJ Event Gear supplied full technical - including Robe's new ROBIN 300 Wash and Spot moving lights - for a recent corporate event at Johannesburg's Montecasino venue, featuring a live set by leading SA rock band, Prime Circle.
The event's lighting designer, Johnny Scholtz, chose the 8 x ROBIN 300 Washes and 8 x ROBIN 300 Spots for their small size and high output and because they fitted perfectly into the stage space.
The units were rigged around a 10 metre wide by 8 metre deep ground support system that was installed for the event, and delivered a fabulous range of colour and beam effect for Prime Circle's set.
They were also used as an integral part of the event's general lighting system, operated by Scholtz on a WholeHog II console.

The acclaimed Tallinn City Theatre is re-opening after a three-year closure that saw implementation of a full renovation and technical upgrade programme, including the purchase of new Robe moving lights – 55 x T2 Fresnels and 17 x T2 Profiles – and the addition of a complete new main venue which is two stories below ground, and brings the busy and vibrant repertory theatre’s performance space total to seven – 4 main, two extras / experimental and an outdoor area. The same team also operates shows in another building down the street.
A new Robe moving light rig has been installed in the 800-capacity ‘Liquid Lounge’ main theatre space aboard the Carnival Sunshine cruise ship, which stages a host of large-scale production shows, themed performances, and other entertainment events. This was undertaken during an extensive refurbishment of the vessel whilst in dry dock at the Chantier Naval de Marseille in Marseilles, France, earlier this year.
