HYUNDAI MERCURY PRIZE 2017

Having worked on the Mercury prize since 2012, in 2016 we worked with the team at the BPI to move the Album of the Year show to The Eventim Apollo Hammersmith. In 2017 we oversaw a complete stage redesign. The Mercury Prize is a technically complicated show that goes out live in partnership with BBC Music. From a stage management point of view, we managed to fit 12 acts in a space designed for 1, using a stage revolve, 3 distinct performance areas and video interstitials to hold the show together.
