Making Our Broadway Debut
by Chris Round on Jun.16, 2009, under News
It’s an odd time of year to talk about Christmas stories, but this one is worth the diversion. I recently learned that last year, when the Grinch stole Christmas on Broadway, they used QC Industries conveyors to support the production. Einstein Innovations owner Gary Schwartz told me last week at ATX East in New York that he “couldn’t have done it without a QC Industries conveyor! We actually used a manual hand crank to move one of the props/characters on and off the stage. The size, light weight, low profile and ease of use of the conveyor were very important.” Gary came by to thank us and to see our new Automation Series conveyor he had heard about. Be on the lookout for more of our conveyors in Broadway productions. Hopefully, with Gary’s help, you’ll be hearing about our first Tony award soon!

It’s not often that one can link industrial automation to broadway. Good job.
Good luck with that Tony award
