Eight cities. One phone number. On the road.
Tour-ready kit, picked, prepped and certified before it leaves. On-the-road service in every state, and certifications that don't lapse between dates. One contact for the whole run, dock to dock.
From the package on the truck to the gear on the dock, one team has it.
A tour is a kit list that has to roll into a new dock every few days and pass inspection at each one - hoists and truss racked for transit, cases built for the road, and the certification trail that lets the venue and the producer both sign off. Explore what we supply and service across the load-in.

What touring productions call us about.
Different city, same short list. These are the calls that turn into a callout the same day - and the reason we keep a service contact in every state before you ask.
A motor packed up two cities into the run, and there was no one local I could call to get it serviced.
Production Manager, national tour
Half the rigging tags were due to expire before the last date, and the next venue wanted current certificates.
Head Rigger, arena tour
The house rig at one venue would not take our points, and we found out on the dock at load-in.
Tour Manager
We needed a few more hoists for the bigger rooms, and our own fleet was already out on another run.
Technical Director, touring production
Bump-out was at midnight and the gear had to be back on the truck and ready for the next dock by morning.
Production Manager, theatre tour
Everything your tour carries, from one team.
Most of what rolls into the dock, we build, supply and control. Hover or tap any capability to see what we put on the truck - and who keeps it running once the run starts.
Tour-ready kit on a calendar.
Hoist, rigging and drape hire allocated to your full tour window - the same kit you'd buy, picked, prepped and cased to roll. Short for the bigger rooms or running a full touring package, it goes out certified and comes back serviced.
Nothing on the truck is a question mark.
Chain hoists, box truss and rigging consumables, engineered and certified to AS 4991, with the hoists rated D8 Plus. EXE Rise motors and Atlas controllers, racked for transit and rated for work over people at every stop - so the rig holds, dock to dock.
Show automation that packs into the truck.
Our own show automation system drives the moving scenery - turntables, tracked wagons, flying pieces - so the move lands the same way every performance, monitored and cued from a console sized for touring. Alongside it: technical design and drafting, performer flying and custom fabrication for the parts of the show that don't come out of a catalogue, built for the cue sheet you actually tour.
Scenery built to pack, travel and re-rig.
Set construction, prop fabrication and scenic hardware built to pack down, travel and re-rig at every venue on the run - fast to load in, safe to fly, and sized to fit the truck.
A service contact in every state.
On-the-road servicing and mid-tour recertification, so a failure two cities in gets answered locally and certification windows don't lapse between dates. Every item tagged, in-date and documented, so the venue and the producer both sign off at the dock.
How it usually goes, start to finish.
Most touring runs with TSA follow the same five-step shape. Mapped to your tour dates, not ours.

Grid dressed and litQuestions touring productions ask us most.
Yes. We supply service in-house across the country, so a failure two cities into the run is answered by a TSA contact in that state, not a freight job back to base. For tours on a package with us, that on-the-road service contact is set up before you leave, with stocked parts on the most common kit.
Yes. We schedule mid-tour recertification against your dates, so tags don't lapse between cities and the next venue gets current certificates. We map the windows against the run up front and slot the recert into a load-in or a day off, rather than letting a date catch you out.
We engineer the package so it works across the rooms on your run, and where a house rig won't take the points as planned, we work the rigging design and supply the adaptation - bridles, alternative steels, extra motors - so the show still loads in. Better found on a drawing than on the dock, so we check the venue rigs against your plan ahead of the dates.
Lifting and rigging work is delivered against AS 4991 and D8 Plus where applicable. Drape FR treatment is delivered against AS 1530. Electrical testing against AS/NZS 3760. Where a producer or venue has insurer-specific requirements, we work to whichever standard is stricter.
That's the most common reason productions ring us. We allocate the hoists, truss and rigging to your full tour window on the calendar - one package, one spec, certified out and serviced back - so you're not re-sourcing kit city to city. Short for the bigger rooms or building a full touring package, it's the same kit you'd buy, on hire for the run.
