Panto season is almost here...
15-10-2013
Floors for the performing arts must often fulfil a wide range of functions, from stage floors designed for heavy props, a sprung floor that meets the needs of dancers and performers, or simply a floor for a ‘one off’ event such as an exhibition or show.
But with the floor becoming more than just a neutral functional element, what options do set designers have to give their flooring that exciting ‘wow’ factor?
In the theatre industry, set design plays a significant part in an audiences’ enjoyment of a show and this in turn can add to their understanding of a production’s setting and mood. After all, the success of many West End shows is as much down to the set and special effects as the show itself.
Harlequin Floors has several solutions for set designers. Whether it be for a large scale production, local theatre or school play or pantomime, Harlequin has a wide range of floors to suit many applications.
Harlequin Hi-Shine rolls out quickly and easily to create a stunning wet-look high gloss finish that is ideal for creating spectacular lighting effects. Used on leading prime time talent shows, pop concerts, TV commercials, theatres and much more, Harlequin Hi-Shine adds lustre to any event.
Harlequin Reversible is the classic double-sided stage floor, providing a slip resistant surface and different colour on both sides; it really is two floors in one!
Harlequin Showfloor is a loose-lay or portable lightweight sheet vinyl for uses such as fashion catwalks, shows, stage sets and events of all kinds. Suitable for areas of light-medium traffic, it can be laid on any hard, smooth surface e.g. wood, plywood, chipboard, hardboard (Masonite), terrazzo, concrete.
Did you know we also offer a vinyl printing service? Harlequin Reversible, Harlequin Showfloor Harlequin Cascade, and Harlequin Studio vinyls are suitable for printing. Choose from a range of standard images, a bespoke design, logo or custom colour.
