Manon is a 13-24degree zoom followspot using a 1200W MSR or MSD lamp. Manon has a built in mechanical douser, an iris that can spot down to fully closed and is mounted in a removable cassette, a six-way colour boomerang and, in common with many of the Juliat followspots, the unit can also accept a gobo. To allow Manon to suit a range of venues and operators, the unit is fitted with a heavy-duty adjustable yoke.
Manon adds to the already comprehensive Robert Juliat range, joining products such as the Aramis, Cyrano, Ivanhoe, Heloise, Foxie, Pixie and Marius which have already proved popular with a wide range of venues across the UK. Venues and companies to which White Light has supplied Juliat equipment include the BBC, the Royal Opera House, the Royal National Theatre, the Barbican Concert Hall, the Yvonne Arnaud in Guildford, the Theatre Royal in Stratford East as well as many hire projects, including the smash-hit musical Chicago.
"We are delighted to be able to show Manon at our Open Day,” says White Light's Bryan Raven. "We had thought that by gathering many of the leading manufacturers, and the latest moving lights and lighting consoles together under one roof - and adding food, drink, a hot-air balloon and a jazz band - that we'd already provided something for everyone. But this new follow-spot, which should appeal to a wide range of venues, will add even more interest. As always, it's an open invitation and all are welcome.”
