Electro Kabuki Flops & Drops Streamers for Kylie on Golden Tour.
Among a wealth of innovative laser choreography and dazzling special effects for Kylie’s recent Golden Tour, award-winning ER Productions used a two-stage Electro Kabuki drop to reveal golden mylar streamers, before dropping them to the stage.
As the official supplier of lasers and SFX for Kylie’s 15th concert tour, ER Productions rigged 16 of its Electro Kabuki dropper modules to the grid above the stage to provide a ‘flop & drop’ effect for 15-metre-long gold mylar streamers.
It all happened during the track ‘Spinning Around’. The Electro Kabuki system dropped one end of each streamer perfectly on cue for the dancers to interact with. Then, at the end of the routine, phase two of the kabuki drop released the streamers from the grid. They fluttered impactfully to the stage.
We know that Electro Kabuki has become the mainstay of staging professionals who need to rig a dependable theatrical drop effect. This high-profile event for the Princess of Pop provides more evidence.
ER Productions supported all 27 of Kylie’s glamorous shows across Europe, from the inaugural event in Newcastle in September to the final show in Hamburg in November.
