Ball At The Hall, a TV musical spectacular
St. David's Hall, Cardiff

Michael Ball is a singer, best known for his work in London's West End. The production consisted of two live performances, with different set lists, which were then edited into three one hour TV shows for BBC Wales.

This was my first real outing with an Avolites Pearl 2000, with which I was already quite familiar, but had previously only used on small conferences.

With thirty songs to program in just over two days and rehearsals to deal with in the meantime, I definitely had my work cut out. I had ten units each of MAC500s, Cyberlights and Studiocolours to play with and play I most certainly did ! So much so that I didn't get to take many pictures. The show was produced by Presentable Productions and the Lighting Director was John Treays, best known for his TV drama work, including the classic Abigail's Party.
