SBTD exhibition installs and de-rigs for Staging Places

The Society of British Theatre Designers have worked with E-stage over a period of 16 months now supporting three very different installs and iterations of our exhibition Staging Places. Each venue (an international festival, a national museum and an art gallery) has presented significant and different challenges. Ian Taylor and his team have budgeted and managed each project fairly, honestly and competitively. Their time management is impeccable and the positive, good humoured attitude of the whole team makes such hard work a really enjoyable experience for everyone involved.

eStage - Amazing at supporting a vision

eStage have been amazing at supporting a vision of marketing through a website - they listened to the brief attentively, offered great technical guidance, worked incredibly fast to refine and adapt to changes, and provided a very personable contact and interface that made me feel like I was in really good hands. Their pricing is very competitive and for anyone creative, they know how to work well in this sector and create an online presence that isn't corporate or dry. Will continue using their services to maintain my site, campaigns and emails for the foreseeable future.

Great work, ideas and support

The PMF had a really positive experience working with eStage on our new Members website productionmanagersforum.org. eStage looked at the website we already had and the work that we do. They suggested how the new website could function better for our members and for all the Committee Members who use it to who look after different aspects of our work. They have designed the site so that we can continue to expand its use in the future.
We made various suggestions as to what we wanted on the website, but did not have to worry about any of the technical aspects, as Ian Taylor took these all in his stride. He presented his ideas to us clearly, and took on board any changes we talked about. Nothing was too much trouble and the support offered as we get used to the new site has also been excellent.
Not only do we have a new, good-looking, easy to navigate, interactive website, but eStage’s input as to how we could use it has changed and improved our way of working as an organisation.

The best on the Off West End

We have used eStage Production for our past three theatre shows on the London Off West End and continue to rehire them with complete confidence. We always feel in safe hands with them. They have expert knowledge on the practicalities of theatre production, they budget meticulously and all their work is carried out on time and with attention to detail. They work with a reliable network of technicians and builders and will always listen to the show's creatives, adeptly realising each show's unique creative vision. They have wonderful interpersonal skills as production managers and consistently go about their job with charm and intelligence, making the whole experience enjoyable for everyone involved. We would wholeheartedly recommend them for your show.

E-stage are an exceptional company. The team are utterly reliable, conscientious and skilled. They have worked with Papatango Theatre Company on 6 projects over 4 years, always delivering with absolute efficiency and courtesy. We recommend them whole-hearted.

Would highly recommend to anyone in…

Would highly recommend to anyone in search of production management you can trust. Design was delivered on time within budget to a very high standard. Hugely refreshing to work with production managers who are not willing to compromise the artistry and integrity of the design in order to simplify the job. Easy going company, well equipped, a very easy and pleasant work process despite time and budget constraints of the job.

Fantastic professional service.

Ian was a true professional, easy to get on with and you felt you could trust him from the moment we met. He managed the production very well and am looking forward to continuing to build a good working relationship with eStage.

eStage - our go-to production management company!

I run an arts venue and participatory organisation in Barking. eStage supplied and installed the light and sound rig for our new studio theatre, in advance of the grand opening of the theatre. Nothing was too much trouble for Ian, Cameron and the team. They installed in a timely, safe fashion and gifted us extras such as festoon lighting for house lights, a lecturn for speeches and a star curtain. They had thought of everything! The service is friendly, ultra-efficient and professional. I also compere lots of festivals, and so I'm backstage with the eStage crew quite regularly. Ian is easily the best stage manager I've ever worked with. He's so calm, competent and unflappable. All in all, I can't recommend eStage highly enough.
