Automating the Royal Shakespeare Theater




A four-year, $139 million transformation of the Royal Shakespeare Theatre (RST) in Stratford-upon-Avon included a major project to automate the movements of back-drops and scenery as well as the complex system of lighting arrays. At the heart of the project, (designed and installed by Trekwek, a Dutch theater automation company), are around 100 AC drives and servo motors from Control Techniques, an Emerson Industrial Automation company (NYSE: EMR). The contract was awarded by Trekwerk to Control Techniques’ Rotterdam Drive Center.
