It has come to our attention here at Byron Theatre, that many Theatres are in the process of upgrading to new technology and we are keen to inherit your old equipment. We are very happy to pay transportation costs to Byron as well as credit your gift on our website. We are particularly interested in stage lighting and I have listed our preferences below. • Profiles • PAR 64’s • Zoom Spots • Mini zoom spots • Pacific Profiles • Mac 500’s or other • Psych • Floods - any equivalent to the above in LED lighting preferred. Other equipment needed includes Monitor Speakers (fold back only), Cabling 240 volts, XLR (microphone cables) and Curtain Blacks.

I rember quite a few years

I rember quite a few years ago, some Wombat or was I a Numbat? Suggested 'Aunty Ita' should look at having a fairly central Wharehouse cum workshop for Props, Set Pieces & lighting,  Audio or other Techie Gear. That can be on a crosshire agreement between member Ameatre Groups. Which would  solve a lot of individual Group storage problems & assist with the maintance & purchase of new &/or updated gear.

I'm sure there a few retired old Techies, with time to volunteer & to help out to fix &/or look after the gear!

 It wouldn't take that much for 'Aunty" to apply for a Gov Grant to pay the Lease or  rent.
