The Blue Box Theatre

BBTS staff wrote the technical specification and tender documentation for The Blue Box Theatre, a 300-seat new-build theatre forming part of a larger new-build project — the entire school itself.

BBTS then oversaw the entire tendering process for the theatre's lighting, sound, AV, and seating systems, and produced detailed comparison reports of all tender returns together with recommendations.

Once companies had been chosen to supply and install the infrastructure and equipment, BBTS staff project-managed the associated installations from start to finish, including the inevitable snagging phase.

Training was also provided to both staff and students on the capabilities and use of the new equipment and infrastructure.

When the Blue Box opened in 2003, it was without a doubt the most technologically advanced school theatre of its kind anywhere in the North West — testament to BBTS staff's commitment to ensuring that the state-of-the-art new school building had quality, industry-standard performance systems to match, at a price the school and Local Education Authority could afford.
