By Tour Leader Gareth Kays
A group of 16 current, and future members of our industry, were kindly invited to a backstage tour of Sir Paul McCartney’s Got Back Tour at Allianz Stadium in Sydney.
Lighting and Stage Designer LeRoy Bennett generously took the group on a tour of the lighting rig and control system for the tour, while also discussing subjects including his career pathway, the design process of working with different artists, budgets, pre-visualisation, exchanging fixtures and updating the design, along with the progression and evolution of event technology.
