Two Stages at Razzle Dazzle Dallas Provide Diverse Entertainment in Main Street Garden

Razzle Dazzle Dallas took over Downtown Dallas's Main Street Garden Park for a rousing celebration and festival of entertainment on Saturday, June 8th - and Dallas Light and Sound was there with audio, lighting, staging and flatscreens for sponsor recognition.

With two stages for entertainment, one located on each side of the park, the Razzle Dazzle committee event producers provided two showcases for their cavalcade of diverse entertainment for event attendees. Featuring three sets in a festival spanning performance by "The Bright" on the Bud Light Main Stage, the evening also included The Women's Chorus and The Turtle Creek Chorale on the community stage. A  hi-nrg performance from the Rose Room Girls, a flash mob photo event directed by emcee Patti Le Plaesafe, soloists, a country duet, a comic, and a DJ at the Red Bull DJ pavilion meant the evening was chock full of ever-changing entertainment.

On The Bud Light Main Stage, Dallas Light and Sound provided large format audio and a custom lighting design and installation that captivated the crowd. With color changing LED Panels and an array of LED and conventional Par cans, intelligent lighting on truss, and ample fog... the lighting for this performance stage enhanced the energy present on the stage. Audio on the main stage was anchored by a 24 channel Behringer mixing board with dual on-board vocal effects, an amplifier array, and major speaker arrays flanking the stage.

 

Meanwhile on the Community Stage on the opposite end of Main Street Garden, showstopping performances included the Rose Room Girls and the Turtle Creek Chorale. Members of The Chorale entertained the crowd with their voices captured by an array of Audio Technica condenser mics, allowing the group to perform with crowding around traditional hand-held mics. Lighting for the Community Stage came from two truss towers, strategically positioned to flank the stage and cross light the performance area.

The old Statler Hotel and numerous other buildings provided a beautiful backdrop for the night. The Statler also served as a surface for gobo projections that appeared as the highlight of a media photography event, shown below. With the Red Bull Pagoda anchoring the center of the park space, and a VIP Lounge sponsored by Kru vodka, event attendees had plenty of focal points to fill the 5+ hours of Razzle Dazzle.

Yes, darker colored cakes also benefit from proper lighting. This chocolate vision of heaven from Sugar City Sweets and Celebrations tasted delicious. It looked best both in the afternoon hours and as the sun descended with cake lighting from Dallas Light and Sound.

Evening of Hope Gala at Colonial Country Club in Fort Worth Benefits AOC

Patrons enjoyed a sensational evening on Saturday, May 4th at the AOC Evening of Hope Gala in Ft. Worth. With an awards presentation, followed by a fashion show, speeches by clients and supporters, and total production services provided by Dallas Light and Sound .... the evening at Colonial Country Club was both beautiful and inspirational.

AIDS Outreach Center is the leading organization in Tarrant and seven surrounding rural counties serving men, women and children with HIV and their families, educating the public about HIV prevention and advocating for sound HIV public policy.

One of the highlights of the evening was a fashion show featuring the designs of Edgar Gomez. Edgar Gomez describes himself as a person who is passionate about life, and making the most of it. His dream started twenty-one years ago in his home country of Venezuela. He has always been a strong person following his dreams no matter what obstacles would stand in his way.  He developed an interest for the fine arts, music and dance and fashion design at an early age. Four years ago Edgar moved to America and it is here that he realized fashion design was his true calling.   Edgar is a dreamer, always transforming fantasy into reality. He uses his design as a chance to transform his imagination into beautiful creations for women to feel gorgeous and confident.
