This agreement, which covers land-based stage engineering installations in North America, was signed at the LDI 2001 exhibition in Orlando earlier this month, and cements a relationship that has been strengthening over a number of years. The companies first worked together in 1995 providing a complete 95-axis power flying system for the Teatre Nacional in Barcelona, Spain. More recently, JR Clancy provided the Conference Center of The Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints in Salt Lake City with an automated rigging system complete with a 45-axis Nomad control system.
Tom Young, vice-president of sales and marketing of JR Clancy, explained: "This agreement formalizes the working relationship we have had for many years, combining Stage Technologies’ line of respected control products with Clancy’s established motorized rigging equipment."
Sales and marketing director for the company John Hastie added: "Our work to date with JR Clancy has included most recently a 12-axis Juggler console system in the Center for Performing Arts at Rhinebeck, New York, as well as numerous recent installations on board major cruise ship venues."
