Lighting designer Chris Withers was approached to design the lighting for this gritty, yet sensitive production. With a tight timescale to programme the show, Withers needed a lighting console that was easy to learn and could control a theatre-style show with a mixed rig of conventional and moving lights. Withers first saw the ORB at its UK launch at the ABTT show in June.
"The ORB has all the features necessary to quickly programme a show when you haven't got time to learn a new desk. The functionality is simple, straightforward and yet very clever. I knew exactly what was happening within the Cues at any time," stated Withers. Programmer, MJ added: "I was very impressed with the flexibility of the desk, with the programming being a very quick process."
What's Wrong with Angry can be seen at the Kings Head Theatre until 15 August, 2009.
