Westlife
Touring, with a slick and spectacular stage show, is an essential feature of life for chart-topping boybands like the irrepressible impresario Louis Walsh's protégés, Westlife. Litestructures have furnished the staging for their last three tours, and their latest was no exception.
While the band rehearsed at the Litestructures Studio, our design and build team were constructing a brand new stage set for them, following a concept evolved by Peter Barnes, the design brain behind the Live8 stage. For the Litestructures team, this was a project, rather than an event while, for Westlife and their adoring fans, it was a major success. Touring stage sets like this have to be spectacular, but they also need to be easy to assemble, dismantle and transport. Furthermore, they have to be readily adaptable to different stage dimensions in different venues, and the Litestructures set, with its blend of custom and modular components, is just that.
Taking just 4 weeks from start to finish, this was another all-win result for our combined manufacturing and studio resource.
