WHO WE ARE

WE ARE ...

HARD WORKING

We work exceptionally hard for our clients at all hours of the day and night. And we’re so proud of our staff for the remarkable work they do. And so, we take care of them. From the wellness grant we give, to the bar in our office, to the legendary holiday parties we throw, to the unlimited PTO we offer, we create a culture of caring. We make sure our employees are well taken care of, so they are set up to do the best work of their careers for our clients and themselves.

CARING

We care about our clients, our work, and each other. We raise money for charities, make sure our staff is trained in CPR to keep things safe onsite, and serve on boards of arts organizations. And we work in a highly collaborative way where everyone has each other’s back. We are detail-oriented perfectionists who want our work to be singular, excellent, and exemplary.

INNOVATORS

When HEINEKEN wanted to connect more with their audience, we designed a custom 270° stage for them. When Harley-Davidson wanted to highlight design, we created a pre-show that brought the audience squarely into the design process. When Boeing wanted a dramatic way to reveal a plane, we designed and created the world’s largest Kabuki drop. We like doing things well, but we love doing things first.

SMART

We produce live events. That’s what we do. We find ourselves sitting around a conference table with the CEO, CMO, COO of some of the world’s largest and most successful brands. And what are we doing? Helping them strategize. We are honored that our intelligence and insights have earned their trust and partnership enough to give us a seat at the table in “the room where it happens.”

THE CAST

My most impactful live event was actually the first ever live I worked. I received the call the night before that they needed me to fly out to Maui. I met some of my team members for the first time at the airport and jumped right into live event production. I learned a lot but most importantly I learned to always expect the unexpected.

Josh Spivak

Senior Production Coordinator

I saw The Weeknd in 2018 and it was one of my favorite performances. He’s one of those rare artists whose voice sounds just as incredible live as it does recorded - it had everyone absolutely mesmerized. The level of automation and design was stunning, including a massive spaceship-like display that unfolded like origami.

Daniela Paparo

Production Coordinator

The Flaming Lips 2019 concert along Niagara Falls was unforgettable - from the amazing graphics, lighting, and energy, to the lead singer riding through the crowd while performing on an LED unicorn! As a member of the audience, I left this show feeling happy and inspired, which is what makes the best live events so memorable.

Sierra Kenney

Production Coordinator

The Lady Gaga show I saw at MetLife Stadium was so memorable. From the brutalist set design which looked like a Berlin nightclub, to incredible visual interludes between acts, all brought together with her immense and undeniable voice – Lady Gaga easily puts on one of the best productions in pop.

Max Shutt

Studio Manager

Busch Gardens Tampa’s “Hollywood: Live on Ice” likely helped shape my career trajectory. This live stage show combined epic Broadway-caliber staging with talented singers and skaters. As an impressionable 10-year-old, I couldn’t get enough of it, daydreaming about performing with the cast AND being a part of the production design team. And yes, I saw it probably 50 times!

Sam Port

Senior Creative Director

Leading the creative for The UPS Store was a really memorable experience. What started out on my little MacBook made its way all over the convention center - experiencing it on the big screen was extremely rewarding. It was invaluable to me as an artist to see all the hours put behind something you created being taken in by hundreds of people all at once.

Jennifer Yan

Senior Graphic Designer

A memorable performance for me was attending the celebration of Alvin Ailey’s life at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine. It was magical and transcendent – the gothic Cathedral setting, excerpts of his iconic dances including exquisite performances of ‘Revelations’ and ‘Cry’, Maya Angelou reciting a commemorative poem, and much more. I was swept away…

Olga Losada

Executive Producer

One of the most memorable shows I have seen has to be Hamlet starring Mark Rylance at the Royal Shakespeare Company. I was in college studying theater in London at the time and this production blew me away. Years later I had the opportunity to thank him and tell him how transformative it was for me.

Chuck Santoro

Partner, Chief Creative

The Harley-Davidson Annual Dealer Meeting in 2014 was the first and most memorable show I worked at in the US with Proscenium. I was impressed with the level of production and visuals, and it was amazing to see the attendees running in as if they were at their favorite concert. That’s when I fell in love with this work.

Agustina Jacobi

Head of Design

Working the Miami Open tennis tournament during college was so memorable. I loved being part of a team that helped build the event from an operational and communications standpoint. After months of putting the event together, it was awesome to see the attendees fill the seats to watch some of the best tennis players in the world and know I had a small part in bringing it all together.

Lauren Repici

Senior Producer

I will never forget going to the world-famous Glastonbury Festival for 14 years in a row back in the 80s and 90s. I was fortunate enough to see David Bowie, The Cure, Tom Jones, Radiohead, New Order, Oasis, Blur, Pulp, Coldplay, REM, and many others! There were many amazing experiences to count!

Mark Shearon

Partner, Managing Director

I produced an event with a small group of billionaires who pledged to give away all their wealth to change the world. It was a hard event, with that level of attendee. But with the overall mission had a profound effect on me because our work, at its core can connect people to do amazing things.

Meghan Finley

Account Director

I will never forget seeing Celine Dion when I was 18. Not only was her performance brilliant, her set was in the round and Celine worked the entire stage and made the audience feel like we were all front row. I’ll never forget feeling impressed by how the lights, audio, and stage design were able to keep up with her amazing performance.

Ke'ala Warwick

Producer

One of the most memorable shows for me was at the Georgia Dome in 2005. It was Herbalife’s 25th Anniversary, and as part of their 3-day event, Elton John performed for an audience of 35,000 attendees. It was a wonderful full circle experience as Elton John was the first concert I saw decades earlier, and now I was part of team that produced the event, and it was spectacular!

Peter Pastor

Partner, CFO

A memorable event? The 10K person event for Primerica when I was in intern. Day one, was the most beautiful, impactful session I had ever seen. It gave me goose bumps. I knew from that moment I wanted to not only be in this industry, but I wanted to produce live events such as that, all over the world.

Julie Haggerty

Executive Producer

Watching my mom perform in the Broadway production of Footloose from the stage right wing was my first memory being at a show. I knew from that moment, I preferred being on stage right as opposed to house left. I also developed a love of video games, playing Sega Dreamcast with the stage door security guard.

Henry Evans

Creative Director

The original Angels In America on Broadway was a life-changing experience for me. I remember the rush I felt when I realized the audience would leap to its feet to appreciate the incredible artistry we had just experienced. It was a magical production that changed the way I looked at society, spirituality, theatricality, history, and, most of all, myself.

Jeremy Dobrish

Senior Creative Director

An event I produced in Beirut, Lebanon was one of the most impactful shows for me. I was traveling on my own without the comfort of my team and working with a group of Lebanese professionals I had never met before. Between the challenges faced by a language barrier, cultural differences, and variance in technology, I learned resilience and was reminded of the incredible power of live events!

Emily Daniels

Senior Producer

A memorable event? The 3 AM impromptu jam session I had the honor to witness. It was led by Prince of “Let’s Go Crazy” at SNL’s 40th-anniversary party at the Plaza Hotel. He kicked it off with a “Dearly Inebriated”. It was celestial.

Christian Bayonet

Andres Pinto

Manager of Growth

Celine Dion’s “The Courage Tour” concert in February 2020 was a show I will never forget. It was a week before the world shut down due to the pandemic – it made it even more memorable. The energy at the concert felt so unreal, it was simply unlike anything I have ever experienced!

Mona Gimenez

Finance Director

Seeing AV artists Coldcut perform in 1998 was one of the most exciting shows I've ever been to. They developed their own software to trigger video samples that integrated with their music live during performance... completely immersive, psychedelic, and ahead of its time. Their D.I.Y. ethos inspired me to invest money in studio gear and time creating music/videos which I still do to this day.

John Bowen

Art Director

The live event that impacted me the most was the last night of Brandi Carlile’s 2022 tour at Madison Square Garden. She is such a charming and charismatic performer who is also so genuine and incredibly talented – as is her band. They rocked all the way up to the nosebleed section! I knew every song she played, it was a show I will never forget.

Bethany Potter

Senior Manager, Growth & Administration

Performances have always been transcendent experiences for me, but nothing has had the same impact as the play I saw at Vineyard Theatre called "Do You Feel Anger?" by Mara Nelson-Greenberg. I can recount the staging of the show, how they amplified the storytelling, and where I was physically and emotionally before, during, and after the show. These profound feelings could only be experienced at a live event.

Shraddha Maharjan

Graphic Designer

For memorable shows...it has to be Cirque Du Soleil's KÀ. I've seen almost every Cirque show but that one was my first and is still my favorite. At the time I wasn't yet involved with live events but I knew it was something I wanted to pursue. As a bonus, Cirque combines my two worlds: gymnastics and events. Both are about putting on a phenomenal show from beginning to end.

Kylie Agin

Associate Producer

Seeing a State Farm event I went to years ago. It was amazing to see how the team put entertainment, meetings, and activities together at a live event. I don't often get to go to our shows so seeing the magnitude of what my team produced was so memorable!

Ping Shih

Controller

Stromae’s Multitude Tour at Madison Square Garden was the most memorable, well-crafted concert I have ever seen. From the costumes of the crew, to the technology moving the screens, the content, the music and more, it was creative perfection!

Grace McCarney

Creative Associate

I will never forget touching Dave Bayley’s shoe at the Glass Animals concert in 2017. I haven’t been to many concerts where popular artists crowd surf, so it was memorable for me to see the trust he had in the crowd. That moment amplified the energy in the arena, and the remainder of the show was a blast!

Taylor Schober

Junior Graphic Designer

The first play I ever went to in college called “She Kills Monsters”. I felt seen in a way I hadn’t before. It presented the struggles that the LGBTQ+ community deals with when growing up and how little-known these struggles can be to the rest of the world. The storytelling was so powerful and inspired me to see more plays.

Justin Powell

Administrative Accounting Coordinator

Bonnaroo 2015. It was my last festival with my friends before I moved out of Tennessee for college and the experience of seeing all of my favorite artists at the time and being surrounded by people who loved music as much as I did made it such an incredibly memorable event.
