Hope Mill Theatre is an alternative arts project dedicated to the production of musical theatre in Hope Mill, a former Victorian cotton mill in the Ancoats area of central Manchester, for which HSL is a technical partner.

 

Hope Mill has just appointed its first technical manager, Alice Longson. HSL has also announced that it is upping its commitment to providing more and a wider range of lighting equipment for the forthcoming season and the future.

 

The 120 seat theatre space is flexible and can be set up in any format. One of the first things that HSL did when they started working with Hope Mill two years ago, was undertake a structural survey which was followed by the design and installation of a trussing mother grid in the roof.

 

While an assortment of lighting kit has been supplied over the last two years, this has now been reviewed and upped to include a standard rig of ETC Source Four profiles, 1K fresnels, and Acclaim fresnels together with a variety of floods.

 

Moving lights and other specials will be supplied as required by the individual productions. The original mothergrid has also just been extended with some new sections, giving more capacity for the addition of specials.
