A UNIC mini spider crane hired from GGR Group has helped build the theatre set for a production of Peter Pan in Regent’s Park, London.
The 0.995 tonne capacity UNIC URW-095 model was used to install the stage framework and scenery at the open air theatre.
In preparation for the show’s opening night, the UNIC mini crane installed 4m steel trusses, each weighing 100kg to construct the stage. The mini crane was easily moved around the stage into various set up positions, making quick work of the installation at the 1,250 seat venue. There was no sign of the lost boys or any pirates to slow down the work!
A UNIC URW-295 mini crane hired from GGR has been used at the Regent’s Park open air theatre before, building two metallic walls for a the production of The Gershwins’ Porgy & Bess, a multi-level set for the 2010 production of Into The Woods. UNIC mini cranes have also been used for lifting timber beams at the Shakespeare Globe and constructing a stone staircase at the St James Theatre in London.
Take a look at our theatre lifting project photos to see how UNIC mini cranes have put on a good show at theatres and music venues around the world. For more information about how UNIC mini cranes can help you with your lifting project contact the technical team at your nearest GGR depot.
