What touring support is

On the road,
and in the show.

Touring Support keeps a touring set looking and operating at peak performance, venue after venue.

  • Preventive maintenance holds the scenic elements to the standard they were built to
  • On-the-road repair puts right the wear and knocks between houses
  • 24-hour turnaround on essential faults, with a 24/7 contact through the run
  • On-site production crew join the show where it needs them

The support half of touring: service, not kit. Touring Packages bundle the gear. Support keeps your scenic elements maintained and repaired once the tour is moving, by crew from the Sets, Scenery & Props workshop, briefed on your build.

What touring support does for your show

Four jobs, one team.

Keep the run moving

Preventive maintenance that keeps the scenic elements in good working order, venue after venue.

Fix a fault fast

A 24-hour turnaround on any essential fault, reached on a 24/7 contact through the run.

What's covered

The full support cover,
load-in to load-out.

Touring support is not a single call-out. It is a maintained engagement: scenic elements kept in working order, show-stopping faults fixed, crew on the ground where the run needs them. The set you opened with is the set you close with.
