Robe Pointe spotlights illuminate the 'futuristic' creation of the musical 'A Marte Cabaret'

The designer Felipe Ramos has selected the Pointe light bulbs of Robe, brand represented in Spain by EES and supplied by ASL Light Solutions, to create spectacular designs of light and a futuristic atmosphere in the musical 'A Marte Cabaret', successfully represented on Madrid's Gran Vía.

Created and directed by Yllana, the musical show 'A Marte Cabaret' combines circus, music, humour, eroticism and science fiction in a futuristic and intergalactic environment, in which scenic and spectacular lighting is a fundamental element .

Designer Felipe Ramos, at the head of the lighting project of this musical that has achieved great success in Madrid's Gran Vía, required a spotlight that offered a powerful lighting background to create various light beam designs and provide versatility, without losing illuminance and spectacularity, essential in this cabaret-themed show based on science fiction.

The solution chosen has been the Pointe spotlights of Steal, brand represented in the Spanish market by Entertainment Equipment Supplies (EES),have been supplied by ASL Light Solutions. As Ramos explains, "The Pointe spotlights have been great for this purpose. They offer great versatility: from a laser-type beam or a 'beam spray', to effects of a spot 1200 and wash-type illuminations to cover the entire space homogeneously".

This lighting designer has taken advantage of the wide range of possibilities offered by these spotlights, "We have squeezed each and every one of its characteristics, using from the minimum gobo 'beam reducer’ to the frost to make a wash", underlines Ramos.

Given the theme of the show, the lighting had to respond to two very different needs: cabaret light, Colorful, festive and with a lot of color on the one hand, and technological and science fiction aspect on the other; a challenge that Felipe Ramos has successfully solved in this show.
