The Virgin brand has expanded with a new cruise line, comprising of 4 sister ships – Scarlet Lady, Valiant Lady, Resilient Lady and Brilliant Lady. Partnering with Virgin to provide an unforgettable wow-factor in the new ships’ public spaces, and enabling entertainment to transcend the boundaries of the theatres, TAIT provided design proposals enabling the incorporation of performer flying facilities into public spaces.
We are providing our proven theatrical automation for the onboard venues, including the Red Room in which we have facilitated movement of a multi-part LED wall, a TAIT Stage Machinery™ system, a TAIT Automated Flying™ system and curtain systems, and the Manor venue with bespoke rising chandeliers and Performer Flying equipment. TAIT performed all design, mechanical and electrical manufacture, installation, commissioning and training, to support Virgin Voyages on their new ventures at sea.
The Virgin fleet pioneered the deployment of TAIT’s flagship epiQ consoles, and now use these for control throughout all performance venues. This choice has been followed by other cruise lines, thereby maximizing access to trained automation operators in the maritime community.
