Lights, Camera, Action!

A fast-growing lighting and sound business in Northern Ireland has just finished a major theatre installation.

Production Services Ireland has supplied and installed the lighting and sound equipment at the new 400-seater Theatre At the Mill in Newtownabbey, Co Antrim.

It is the newest addition to Newtownabbey Borough Council's HQ, and is located in the Civic Square area at the back of the painstakingly renovated Mossley Mill, a former 19th century flax mill.

PSI tendered and won the contract to equip the theatre against stiff competition and worked to the specification of consultants Theatre Plan and closely with the venue's Technical Manager, Mick Draine and also supplied technician Alan Clarke for the full fit up period and the first few weeks of operation, to ensure that all things technical went smoothly.

PSI's Brian Reilly said: "We were delighted to win this contract.

"Theatre is a growing market in Ireland and an area in which we have plenty of experience. It's great to see the investment going into high profile projects like this."
