Stage and Theater Lighting
LED Strips Enhance West End Productions
In the London West End, over 700 meters of RGBW LED strip lights were installed in the musical Titaníque at the Criterion Theatre. Controlled via DMX systems, the lighting setup adds immersive and dynamic effects to the stage.
Similarly, the Nottingham Playhouse production of Girls & Boys used RGB + 3000 K LED strips for subtle color blending, replacing traditional scene changes with light-based transitions to support emotional shifts.
