Musical ‘On Your Feet’ Uses CHAUVET DJ Fixtures

The musical “On Your Feet” recently used the CHAUVET DJ Intimidator Beam LED 350 on the show’s run at the Beatrix Theater in Utrecht, courtesy of Stage Entertainment Netherlands.

New York-based Dutch lighting designer Gertjan Houben  specified 48 Intimidator 350 Beam fixtures, supplied by Ampco Flashlight. Although the décor and scenic elements of the Dutch production were identical to those of its counterpart on Broadway, the theatre’s stage dimensions and obstructions created some technical challenges for the translation of the lighting concept, especially with regards to the limited trussing space above the proscenium.

“When looking for a compact and lightweight beam fixture for the proscenium truss, the Intimidators were the perfect fit,” he commented. “Because of their small form factor, they fit perfectly within the truss without creating an unsightly distraction for theatregoers.”

Posner, along with Broadway Associate LD Anthony Pearson and programmer David Arch, created a number of different lighting scenes to reflect the various musical numbers and different atmospheres within the show. Thanks to the 75W LED engine of the Intimidator Beam, with its bright, long-throw effects and tight, concentrated beam angles, he had an ideal tool for shaping  the story with interesting visuals.

“With their tight beams and excellent effects such as pan, tilt, saturated colors and gobos, the Broadway team was able to create moments of light spectacle in the transitions between scenes to concert scenes and the Mega mix finale,” continued Houben. 

“With their LED source, we knew that the quality of the output wouldn’t change during the run of shows,” continued Houben. “The Broadway crew told me they hardly needed to look after the fixtures throughout the two-year run, and they never had a single fallout during a show – reassuring for a show that is mostly dependent on moving light.”
