YO GABBA GABBA!
Well the little show that was supposed to have been a nice little filler for the holidays has now turned into one of the highest profile projects we've worked on! YO GABBA GABBA LIVE! THERE'S A PARTY IN MY CITY kicked off it's 4 city tour in Los Angeles to rave reviews and enough stars to fill a red carpet.
Aside from our guest stars (Snoop Dog, Biz Markie, Sarah Silverman, Jon Heder, etc.) we were joined by the likes of Christina Aguilera, Travis Barker, Heidi Klum, Brad and Angelina, Jason Bateman, and all their associated little ones. It was one heck of a party at the Shrine Auditorium.
The fun continued in both New York City (with DMC, the Roots making special appearances) and Chris Noth, Brandon Frasier, and Brooke Shields in the house, and in Dallas with Erykah Badu.
This weekend we close in Chicago (at the Rosemont) and then prep for the full-blown national tour in 2010. Stay tuned for more info. In the meantime, enjoy the following links:

Has it really been 9 Months!
Hard to believe that nine months have past since our last news update! We spent most of the beginning of the year out in Los Angeles with the install of CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON. A terrific project with great people. After finishing up with that project in July, RACE FOR LOVE in China came hot on it's heels. We spent most of the fall outside of Beijing in the Huairou District building a venue and mounting the production and again, a great group of people to work with.
The upcoming months include the National Tour of the Nick Jr. Hit YO GABBA GABBA and a variety other international projects. Stay tuned for more information.

Growing and Expanding
Well, after an incredibly busy summer spent overseas in both the Philippines and China, we have now returned to a growing office. Sonya Duveneck (Production Associate extraordinaire), joined the team earlier this month and is already overjoyed at taking over the enthralling tasks of receipt data entry and contact list management. We couldn't be happier to have her onboard and hope that the excitement of entering Amtrak receipts doesn't take a toll on her blood pressure.
In addition, we have taken on a bevy of additional projects including two for Universal Studios (one in Hollywood, the other in Singapore), a new touring production of THE MUSIC OF ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER (to tour China in Spring 2009), THOMAS THE TANK (coming in the Winter of 2008/2009), and a future production of KIDZ BOP.
We are now gearing up to mount CHITTY as CINDERELLA continues its trek across China. Stay tuned for more information on the Universal Projects.

If you receive any error messages or find any broken links, please feel free to pass those on so that we may get them corrected.
Well, the fall season has certainly been a busy one. We've updated the GYPSY, RING OF FIRE, and GREASE Macau photo albums and pages. Please take a moment to look through these and see what we've been up to. While it's nice to be back in the office, the spring looks to be equally as busy. This January DIEGO is re-mounting as a 3-Truck Arena and Theatre tour and our most exciting project in our first produced event, DAVID LANZ in Concert at the Weinberg Center. Other exciting projects are on the horizon as well, so check back soon for updates.
