The Rubens 2018 - Capital city Headline shows
The Purpose of this document is to outline the show concept for the 2018 Capital City headline shows.
The show design will take on three parts and become three very different looking shows.
Part one will be lit in silhouette onto a "The Rubens" Black back drop. In part two this black drop will drop down and reveal the "Lu, La, Ru" Backdrops as well as the main light rig, Consisting of Mirror balls and beam spots to give a very high impact look. In part three or Encore the Lu, La, Ru backdrops will drop down revealing Sam on the Piano Upstage Center as well as the final pieces of Set.
The other design elements I want to include are:
- A 2m mirror ball over the crowd (For night is on your side) this will be rigging in the auditorium.
- A white confetti hit for the final song of the set or encore.
- Heavy smoke at all times.
Below are some renders of how each of the parts will look, Please note that these are only computer renders and are meant to be a guide as the design software has trouble rendering how these concepts will actually look especially as I am currently abroad and working of a laptop rather then the suite in the office.

PART one
We Have the option to do this either on a printed "The Rubens" Black backdrop or a simple black scrim that we can hire.
Note this is rendered onto a white surface as it is the only way I could get the shadows to display in the software
The only consideration we need to make is the height of Will's Cabs as if they are to high they will block his shadow.

Part two
The Kabuki Drops revealing the backdrops and a explosion of mirror ball reflected light.

Spot beams will frame up the banners to give them a sense of grandeur. These will also form most of the effects for the show
Warm Backlight will light stage in that classic Rubens style
Pictured Left is the fixtures we will use for this warm Light.
2 meter mirror ball over the crowd to be used in "Night is on our side" This will really bring the show into the audience.
Backdrops will be textured and animated as per the last show we used them on

Part three
The Three "Lu La Ru" Drops Kabuki down revealing Sam on Piano for the Encore"
The Final set will be made of 6x force 20 fans that will suck smoke through onto the stage for Hallelujah and Hoops (I Think they will really work for Hoops)
Note this is a very basic render of how the set looks.

Force 120's are pictured left.
They are a light up fan set piece that spins either direction.

other look - Show renders
The Bar 20's that will light "The Rubens" and the "Lu, La, Ru drops also form a light curtain for Switchblade and Million Man.
Over head spots will make sure the band is well lit and visible and also provide the GOBO shake look in "The Fool" as well as stage texture and feel.
Design SYNAPSES
I think that this design will provide a very diverse looking show with some unique styling, I have tried to consider all elements including budget, Availability of local gear, Loadin, out and labor requirements and put that into a design approach that I think is going to be a great quality show.
