Build the stage, light the room
What you get
Truss & staging
Stage decks, truss structures and rigging built to the venue.
Moving heads
Intelligent lighting programmed to the programme, not left on auto.
Washers & blinders
Colour wash, blinders and floodlights for crowd and stage coverage.
Build & strike
Full crew for load-in, show and load-out.
How much notice do you need?
The bigger the build, the earlier the better. Call 0789 191 660 with your date and we will tell you honestly if it is workable.
Can you work with our venue's existing rig?
Yes — we regularly supplement house systems rather than replacing them.
Do you build the stage as well as light it?
Yes. Stage decking, truss, rigging and lighting are one job here, which is why the timings actually line up on the day.
How early do you need access to the venue?
Build time depends on the size of the structure. We agree an access time with the venue in advance and we are on site before your crew call.
Can you match a design I have been shown?
Send the reference and we will tell you honestly what is possible in the space and the budget before you commit.
What does stage and lighting hire cost?
It is quoted per build, because a truss frame and a full stage are different jobs. Call or WhatsApp 0789 191 660, or email contact@derrickfiles.com.
