Selected travel production / Chicago

Event production support for select Chicago projects.

For the right scope, Shadow Cat brings technical leadership, audio, video, lighting, and playback from our Wisconsin base to Chicago.

Travel production

The technical role is defined before the crew travels.

A Chicago project is a fit when we have a defined production role, enough lead time, and a schedule that allows for travel.

The venue packet should confirm dock appointments, parking, security, elevator access, house systems, and any required in-house or represented labor.
