ELSTREE STUDIOS NO.1 CHOICE FOR TOUR REHEARSALS
10/2009
Elstree Film Studios has become the place to rehearse and stage major music tours for bands such as Take That, Robbie Williams, Il Divo, Kylie, Anastasia, The War of the Worlds and most recently The Nolans, Muse, Spandau Ballet and Placebo.
Coleen Nolan is a regular at Elstree Studios having appeared as a celebrity skater in Dancing on Ice earlier this year and the celebrity show of Who wants to be a Millionaire?
With a height of 50ft, Elstree's George Lucas stage 1 and 2 are perfect for accommodating a full size stadium tour and allows the touring company to simulate the rigs at various venues, including the O2.
These stages are one of the tallest in Europe and benefit from superb supporting facilities ranging from 5 star dressing rooms, wardrobe and make-up facilities to modern production offices and ample car parking. Combined with on site catering, 24/7 security, generous loading in and out areas and just 20 minutes from the heart of London, it's no surprise Elstree Studios is the number one choice amongst tour managers and promoters.
Kevin Hopgood, Production Manger on The War of The Worlds - Alive on Stage (and the Kylie tour) said "Elstree's facilities and staff make a huge contribution to the hard work of rehearsals for a touring show and are key to bringing a big production together. The Studios are great and the dressing room facilities are the best! We could not ask for more helpful and friendly staff in what is a very demanding time on a Production Manager. We could not do it without them."
