Located on London\u2019s iconic Rosebery Avenue, the theatre is renowned as one of the world\u2019s leading dance venues, staging contemporary dance and ballet performances in its 1,560-seat main auditorium. The theatre also has a unique link to Riedel\u2019s home city of Wuppertal through an ongoing residency with the Tanztheater Wuppertal Pina Bausch, a partnership that spans more than 35 years.<\/p>\n

As well providing a stage for visiting companies, the Sadler\u2019s Wells Theatre is a producing house with a number of associated artists and companies creating original works for the theatre, and many locally produced shows are also recorded for cinema. Visiting OB trucks that are also equipped with Riedel Artist systems can easily interface with the theatre\u2019s systems, creating smoothly integrated workflows and tremendous convenience.<\/p>\n

Bolero covers the spacious theatre with only four antennas. One is located at the side of the stage, with another in the auditorium and the third on the fly floor, which also covers all the dressing room corridors and backstage studios. The fourth antenna uses the IT department infrastructure and covers the cafeteria and the entire Lilian Baylis Studio. The setup also provides coverage for all basement areas including technical offices, dressing rooms, and the orchestra pit, and even provides full coverage in the Sadler\u2019s Wells Studios \u2014 despite the studios\u2019 separation from the antennas by several concrete walls.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Sadler\u2019s Wells team has taken full advantage of Bolero\u2019s customisability and has fully tailored the system to the theatre\u2019s needs,\u201d said Nacho Lee, UK Sales Manager at Riedel Communications. \u201cThe team has made extensive use of Bolero\u2019s profile function, giving each full-time member of staff a dedicated Bolero beltpack that has been set to a profile specific to that person\u2019s requirements. In this way, parameters like volume, screen brightness, and quick menus are preset to the user\u2019s liking.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mark Noble, Head of Sound at Sadler\u2019s Wells, has designed highly creative workflows for Bolero using the theatre\u2019s NSA-002A interface. In one example, the team has reassigned Bolero\u2019s red reply button on stage managers\u2019 beltpacks to open a channel to the paging system through the 4W-Interface. This enables stage managers to use the paging system to make backstage calls to all the dressing rooms and other backstage areas from wherever they are. With another profile, the reply button switches between brightness modes to allow the user to remain unseen onstage. The theatre\u2019s NSA-002A sits on a comms network switch that is attached to Wi-Fi, making it easy to reconfigure on the go using a tablet.<\/p>\n

\u201cPeople are amazed by Bolero\u2019s battery life, coverage, and overall user friendliness \u2014 and the integrated bottle opener has also come in handy. This versatile system really has worked wonders for us,\u201d said Mark. \u201cWith the newly released Bolero 2110 (AES67) mode, we will enjoy an even greater degree of flexibility and scalability, so it\u2019s a great thing that the new license is already included in our stand-alone license. We were looking for truly future-proof equipment and have found it in Bolero.\u201d[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/4″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=”1\/1″][vc_separator][vc_button border_width=”0″ link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fmondodrawards.com%2Femea-apac%2Fview-entries%2F|||”]BACK TO ENTRIES[\/vc_button][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
