At the ABTT Awards Dinner on June 11th, Simon Stone was presented with the ABTT Technician of the Year award. Simon has been with Unusual Rigging for over 10 years and was commended for his exceptionally accommodating and calm approach to the rigging of an enormous range of large scale shows. Fulsome tributes were paid to Simon, who responded by recognizing the efforts made by the entire team at Unusual in Northamptonshire.

Over the spring months, an extensive amount of design, planning and preparation went into the projects for May and June, when Unusual would be running at capacity, whilst retaining the capability to take on last minute and emergency work at short notice.

Unusual Rigging will be exhibiting at PALME in Dubai from April 27th to the 29th.

Presenting the broad range of rigging and engineering solutions offered by the company, Unusual will include the award winning and highly successful winch - The Revolution, the Liftket range of electric chain hoists and Prolyte’s truss & Stage Dex ranges. Unusual’s presence at PALME marks the launch of their new Middle East operation, scheduled to open in Dubai in the autumn of 2008. Replicating the service in the UK, Unusual will offer a specialist rigging and engineering service, supported by a comprehensive range of well maintained and up to date equipment. Operating to European standards, all equipment will be stored locally in Dubai.

Probably the busiest ever spring into Summer at Unusual. Gone with the Wind now open, Mary Poppins tour starting up in Plymouth, Cats into Norwich & High Wycombe and Chitty into Bradford and Sunderland. The Beijing Motorshow, Dan Dare at The Science Museum, The BAFTA Awards, ANZAC Day at Hyde Park Corner are just a selection of the projects for this month.
