UK - Harlequin has announced that its ever-popular Harlequin Reversible - a vinyl flooring for dance and stage applications that can be reversed to offer an alternate colour - is now available in a wider range of colours. As well as the established range of black/white, pale grey/dark grey and black/grey, the company is now adding red/blue, hazelnut/beige, tan/fog (a grey in between the existing medium and dark greys) and, finally, green/yellow. Widths and weights remain the same.

There are now seven combinations to choose from, each quick to roll out and lay flat to provide a slip-resistant dance surface. Ideally suited to touring companies, Harlequin Reversible is lightweight, easy to handle and hard-wearing for a long service life. Also available are colour matching adhesive tapes for the whole range.

Harlequin has also announced the release of the Summer 2004 issue of its house magazine - Harlequinade. This latest issue carries the story of how Harlequin's Liberty sprung floor panels provided a unique solution to renowned Spanish flamenco dancer María Pagés, plus news of projects throughout Europe and how a floor replaced after 15 years at Boston Ballet became the object of a souvenir hunt by former students. Anyone involved in dance who would like to receive a copy of Harlequinade can sign up on the website below.
