After a number of years at its Highbury base, the company recently completed the move to the Neasden site, which offers more flexibility in terms of equipment warehousing and office space. Director John Hastie described the company's current workload in the UK as "manic": engineers are involved in a variety of projects including the refurbishment of London's Royal Festival Hall, due for completion in 2007. The company can now be contacted at 9 Falcon Park, Neasden Lane, London NW10 1RZ.
Meanwhile, the company has also announced the opening of a permanent US office in Las Vegas, Nevada, to be headed up by company director Kevin Taylor, with support from two full-time staff. The move follows Stage Technologies' involvement with the Cirque du Soleil show KA at the MGM Grand (see L&SI May 2005), and the office will also assist the company in servicing other stage engineering work in the US, including projects at the Brooklyn Academy of Music in New York and the Church of Jesus Christ of the Latter Day Saints in Salt Lake City, Utah.
