"I don’t think of PCE as a vendor.
I think of them as a collaborator."
WestBeth Entertainment is an entertainment company with a storied history of putting on daring and innovative live shows and theatrical productions. They've worked with some of the best in the business, including Stephen Colbert, Trevor Noah, and John Leguizamo. So, when WestBeth Entertainment needs technical help or support to launch a new show, where do they turn? PCE.
"To put it in general terms, PCE is our 'go-to' technical collaborator on many of our tours, both large and small," says WestBeth founder Arnold Engelman.
PCE has partnered with WestBeth Entertainment on numerous projects over the years, including the recent Brian Cox Universal touring lecture series, and the Henson Alternative stage production Puppet Up!
"PCE worked with the creative team in a collaborative and supportive manner to transfer difficult visuals to state-of-the-art LED screens, lighting equipment, and the necessary delivery systems, allowing our creators' visions to shine," says Engelman.
"PCE introduced our team to quick-setup equipment to drastically cut down load in time and the need for in-house venue labor. This included pre-packaged video and lighting systems for easy truck loading and unloading. PCE also provided key technical labor on the road to operate the delivery systems and oversee load-ins."
"In short, I don’t think of PCE as a vendor. I think of them as a collaborator."
