Held nightly in the luxurious 2,000 seat Ratchada Theatre, Siam Niramit stars 150 performers with over 100 stage crew and technicians on hand for support. It is in fact one of the largest stage productions in the world. With a stage area measuring 65m wide by 40m deep, the task of covering this immense space in fog posed a unique challenge.
Enter eight Jem Glaciator X-Stream Heavy Foggers. Incorporated into several of the elaborate scenes - Heaven, Mighty Capital Ayutthaya and Mystical Himapaan - the Glaciator has proven both efficient and easy to operate.
Supplied by Martin's Thailand representative, Mahajak of Bangkok, the Glaciator was chosen for its single-phase simplicity and Jem heavy fog fluid ease. Jem's heavy fog fluid not affect oxygen levels in the theatre (as CO2 and dry ice will) and also dispenses with the cost and logistical mess of dry ice and CO2, say Martin Professional.
