NEWS: Solutions On Stage IMPROVES PERFORMER SAFETY OF MAGIC MIKE LIVE!
Based on the box office smashes of Magic Mike and Magic Mike XXL, Magic Mike Live! is a sizzling 360-degree dance and acrobatic spectacular that is in equal parts empowering and exhilarating. The show takes place at London’s iconic Hippodrome Casino and features heart-racing dance routines that take place in front of, above and around the audience. Due to its immersive nature, the show has to ensure that its performers are fully safe at all times. As such, they asked Solutions On Stage to design, manufacture and test bespoke steelwork for a specific track used throughout the show, which had to meet the necessary requirements for Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).
Blog: Solutions On Stage - A SERVICE FOR LIFE
Solutions On Stage was formed eight years ago with one aim – to take the complexity out of compliance. And whilst our mantra was definitely ‘safety first’, this has now taken on a double meaning; in the sense that whilst compliance was indeed the first service we offered, we have now evolved to provide a full range of technical solutions. In fact, one of our main aims as a company is to support the life-cycle of our customers’ performance spaces, through the range of services we now offer. As such, we’ve put together a blog which looks at these specific services and explain how, together, they contribute to the longevity of countless venues up and down the country.
