The P.A. People spotlights some of its upcoming projects

The experienced team at The P.A. People are providing innovative and standards-compliant solutions for a number of upcoming projects.

Earlier this year, The P.A. People established its new Venue Engineering team and acquired TheatreQuip, a company with a 30-year history in the Australian staging market.

Under the leadership of industry stalwart Peter Grisard, the new team has hit the ground running with several significant projects in the pipeline including a full counterweight system at Sutherland Entertainment Centre; drapes, tracks and lighting bars for the new Bondi Pavilion; and a full theatrical fit-out including an adjustable acoustic shell and a motorised fly tower for a new multi purpose complex in South Australia.

Chris Dodds, Managing Director of The P.A. People notes "with recent developments in the local staging industry, the timing is perfect and we believe the market is ready for something fresh. With an experienced team providing innovative and standards-compliant solutions and our own products designed and built in Australia, it is a significant offering backed by The P.A. People, who've been trading continuously for 50 years.”

No strangers to fit-out of venues and custom fabrication, The P.A. People have designed, fabricated and installed hoisting systems for loudspeaker clusters in many Australian Stadia, and provided theatrical fit-outs including audio, lighting, stage management, hoisting and flying systems in theatres and performance venues across the country. The Company also created the iconic ‘AO’ Australian Open LED screen logo device for Tennis Australia, recently designed, fabricated and installed the 10-tonne motorised gondola and motorised LED screen support structures for the refurbished Ken Rosewall Arena at Sydney's Olympic Park - and this year have replaced the loudspeaker chain motors at Accor Stadium (Stadium Australia).

From curtain track and drapes, lighting bars and hoists, custom lifts and machinery, counterweight systems and rostra, tension grid floors and control systems, the team at The P.A. People are ready to assist.

The P.A People also offer Sales Hire Service, Installed Systems and Event Communications across a broad range of sectors.
