RADA Production uses Electro Kabuki reveal.

Here at Electro Kabuki, we’re enthusiastic when anyone expresses an interest in our kabuki drop system. And we’re keen to encourage the next generation of inspirational and creative people into the staging and theatre industry.

Great Video from @Rigging_Jump in Chile

We always ask our customers how they are getting on with Electro Kabuki. While we’re happy to say that every response is positive, we sometimes get back even more than we expected.

For example, take the video put together specifically for us by Mauricio Cofre, Head Rigger for Rigging Jump – DG Medios & Gran Arena Monticello in Chile.

Mauricio says, “the truth is, I am very happy with the Electro Kabuki and I hope to make several projects with it. I send you a small video that we made.”

Just like Electro Kabuki, it seems Mauricio is prepared to go the extra mile. We are always grateful to such dependable customers.
