AVW Controls has announced that John McBryde joined the company as a project manager in November. McBryde was the chief electrician at Her Majesty's Theatre in London's Haymarket for many years, working on productions such as Phantom of the Opera and West Side Story, as well as numerous Sunday shows. Coincidentally, he also used to work for Stage Drives & Controls, where both AVW's managing director Anton Woodward and recently promoted director Mark Brown were once employed.

As a project manager at AVW Controls, McBryde will be responsible for organizing and ensuring the smooth running of the diverse range of AVW projects. "Working at AVW Controls will be a welcome change for me and I am delighted to have the opportunity to join the team," said McBryde. "At the moment, in addition to planning ahead for a number of projects which have yet to be announced, we're finalizing work on The Brighton Dome theatre and, as Starlight Express goes into its final few weeks in London's West End, we have taken on responsibility for its maintenance until it closes in mid-January. The original control system was installed in 1984 by Stage Drives & Controls and about six years ago Anton himself designed and installed the computer control upgrade."

AVW Controls now employs six engineers and has an ever-growing list of successful projects.
