Orbital Supplies CSC Audio Playback Solution to Dirty Dancing
Orbital Sales has provided a CSC Audio Playback Software solution to the London stage adaptation of the hit movie Dirty Dancing, currently playing in the Aldwych Theatre.
The show is based on the 1987 film, with screenwriter Eleanor Bergstein adapting her film script for the stage.
The original film starred starring Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey followed a teenage girl who falls in love with a dance instructor during a family holiday. The soundtrack to the film sold 41m copies.
The show’s Sound Designer, Bobby Aitken, chose the CSC Software after an extensive evaluation between other solutions and is using the product to replay sound effects and music tracks. The system is controlled from the show’s main console and outputs to multiple speaker zones including an onstage ‘gramophone’ for realistic ‘rehearsal scenes’.
CSC is gaining rapid adoption within the theatre community due to its powerful, yet easy to use interface. It has recently been deployed on a variety of productions including, It’s a Fine Life (Queens Theatre Hornchurch), The Last 5 Years (Menier Chocolate Factory), as well as continuing its success on the Little Britain UK tour and is lined up to handle the audio playback of a dozen Christmas shows around the country in December.
