THE BRIDGE THEATRE
CUSTOM DIMMING SYSTEM FOR PERFORMING ARTS VENUE
Case Study: Elevating Bridge Theatre’s Entrance with ZICO Lighting Controls
Project Overview:
At any artistic venue, the interior and lighting design must mirror the drama, creativity, and originality seen on stage. The Bridge Theatre in London understands this perfectly, creating an unforgettable guest experience from the moment visitors step through its doors. Central to this transformation is a spectacular lighting installation, fully supported by a Zico Lighting Control system.
The Challenge:
The Bridge Theatre needed a sophisticated lighting control solution that could manage a highly complex lighting centerpiece while creating a dramatic and welcoming ambiance. With visibility extending to iconic landmarks like the Tower of London and Tower Bridge, the installation had to deliver maximum visual impact both inside and out.
The Solution:
A built-to-order lighting control system, specially designed to bring the Bridge Theatre’s vision to life. The centerpiece at the entrance features a stunning array of 288 individual lamps, grouped into clusters of three, distributed across 96 independent dimming channels.
Thanks to the precision and flexibility of the Zico Lighting Control system, each cluster can be dimmed separately, allowing the lighting design team to dynamically shift the focus across the space. The system also supports multiple preset lighting scenes, enabling the creation of dramatic, mood-enhancing effects that captivate guests upon arrival — and are even visible from key London landmarks nearby.
The Results:
With Zico Lighting Controls, the Bridge Theatre has succeeded in blending technical excellence with artistic creativity. The result is a breathtaking entrance experience that reflects the dynamic performances taking place inside, while also reinforcing the theatre’s reputation for innovation and style.
