Technical requirements
Sirkus Aikamoinen tours with four artists and one technician.
Stage
The Land of the Happy can be performed in a theater space, circus tent or outdoor venue with audience 180º around the stage.
The stage dimensions should be minimum:
Width - 10 meters
Depth - 10 meters
Height - 6 meters
The stage surface should be free from splinters, holes and/or other obstructions, and must be
swept clean prod to the company’s arrival. A black dance floor covering the stage is provided
by presenter.
The main set piece of the show is a self standing rig stand.
The dimensions of the stand are:
Width - 8 meters
Depth - 5,2 meters
Height - 5,9 meters
Notice: The rig stand weights 1100 kg. The weight is shared to eight legs. The stand is turned on
wheels 180º during the performance so the stage needs to be straight and stable and the free
height needs to be min 6 meters. To set up the rig stand the assistance of motorized hoists, chain hoists or a fork lift is needed.
Music
The artists play all the music of the performance live. Normally the music is played acoustically but
depending of the circumstances at the venue the instruments might need to be amplified. If the
music is amplified the company requires a professional quality stereo sound system (with full
range speakers and separate sub-bass speakers) with enough power for the venue in question.
Light
Light equipment provided by venue:
6 x Fresnel 2 kW with barn doors
7 x Fresnel 1 kW with barn doors
3 x Fresnel 500 W with barn doors and floor stands
4 x ETC 750 W 36 º
1 x 6 channel socapex-box with 20 m cable to be connected to company’s rigging stand.
All lights are connected to separate channels. See the placement of the lamps and channel list
from lighting plot attached to rider. Lights hanging over the stage must be rigged and
connected before starting the set up of the rig stand.
The lights are operated with company’s light controller (Chamsys PCWing) connected to the
venue system with DMX.
If show is played outdoors during daylight, light requirements will change into a lighter version.
