Scissor Sisters
The Scissor Sisters 2007 Ta-Dah Tour featuring dates at London's 02 and Manchester's MEN Arenas hit all the right notes, playing to packed houses, and featuring an entire stage set and trussing rig from Litestructures. This was the second slice of Litestructures action for the Scissors, following their good experience with us in 2006. Working to a concept by designer Marc Brinckman, overseen by Scissor Sisters production manager, Litestructures provided both the custom staging and the trussing. The impressive set, measuring 15m wide, 12m deep and 10m high, took just 5 weeks to design and build, from concept to completion.
The key elements and features were as follows:
-
Staging: A total of 64 LiteDeck modules, including a custom curved section at the leading edge of the stage to create the trademark shape of the Scissors' legs as functioning walkways. For greater toughness and greater translucence, Litestructures specified Macrolon deck surfaces, with underlit flash effects lighting to provide the desired 'casino' look and feel. The edges of the stage were defined by 152 meters of RGB colour-changing neon flex units.
-
Trussing: The 10m high rig used two main trussing elements in Litestructures MaxiLite 4, powder coated in gold, and supporting five video projection screens.
