After supplying their Aqua Visual FX for the Never Forget Musical (based on the Take That songs), Le Maitre is once again, as it did last year, exclusively supplying the special effects for Take That’s “Beautiful World” tour.
Le Maitre has two full time technicians on the show (Events Manager, Tim Haddon, and Event Technician, Danny Terry), which is currently touring mainland Europe before reaching the UK in mid November.
Le Maitre has been providing a wealth of spectacular effects, including:
- 1 x G300 powered FreezeFog Pro on the 'B' Stage for the opening intro 'Overture' at the top of the show when a cellist, two violinists, a Viola player and Opera Singer perform before the boys appear on the Main Stage.
- 6 x Le Maitre Confetti Cannons Truss mounted and fired on ‘Reach Out’.
- 2 x Dragons using a total of 4 x Dragon Tails: 2 x Stage left and 2 x stage right on the Main Stage.
- 12 x Le Maitre flame heads on the 'C' stage for 'Relight My Fire', plus a modified La Torcia with a Skull over the top to look like a Witch Doctor Voodoo stick.
- A Top Hat, 2 x Jackets and a boot, all of which burst into flames on cue as the boys perform for the final 40 seconds of the song.
- A four individual head Co2 Jet system on the 'C' Stage for 'Relight My Fire'.
- 2 x G300 powered FreezeFog Pros, 1 x stage Left and 1 x Stage Right for 'Rule the World'
- A four head combined Co2 Jet System on the 'B' Stage for ‘Rule the World’ as the LED 'Ball' lands.
