Robe supports book presentation at Prague Quadrennial

Robe helped launch Yaron Abulafia’s new book "The Art of Light on Stage: Lighting in Contemporary Theatre" at the 2015 Prague Quadrennial. The launch - attended by over 300 guests - took place at the Hybernia Theatre in central Prague. It was presented with a conversation between Abulafia and Nick Moran, Senior Lecturer in Lighting for Live Performance, BA Theatre Practice Course Team at London’s Central School of Speech & Drama.

The book presentation was followed by a demonstration of Robe's latest theatre technology, including the new DL4 series of LED moving light fixtures. This section of the day’s activities was hosted by theatre lighting designer Andy Webb from the UK, and it also highlighted the theatre’s new Robe lighting rig which was installed a month previously.

The Hybernia Theatre is the first major theatre in Prague to choose a substantial LED rig in their latest technical upgrade which has replaced the old moving lights (a competitor brand) with 60 new Robe light sources. The fixtures include Robe's DL4S Profile, DL4F Wash and DL4X Spots, together with Actor 6 washes, PARFect 100 LED PARs and CycFX 8s plus MMX WashBeams. Webb’s presentation also featured a preview of the new DL7S fixture.
