Stage Right Productions

What Stage Right Productions does

Stage Right Productions is a UK-based event production company founded in 1990 and headquartered in Warkton, Northamptonshire. The company delivers full-service technical production for festivals, corporate events, theatre productions, motorsport events, fashion shows, and live music touring across the United Kingdom, with a primary regional focus on the East Midlands (Northamptonshire, Cambridgeshire, Bedfordshire, Milton Keynes, and Peterborough). Its service offering covers staging, lighting, sound, rigging, power distribution, LED video systems, and on-site event management, executed through a 9-person core team supplemented by freelance technical crew.

The company's technology base is built on industry-standard professional equipment rather than proprietary platforms. Core inventory includes trailer stages, 10m Arc and 12x8m Milos self-climbing stage systems, modular staging, lighting fixtures from Chauvet Professional, Clay Paky, Robe, GLP, Ayrton, and Martin controlled via Avolites and Chamsys consoles, professional sound systems from analogue to digital line arrays, Blackmagic-controlled LED screens, and a large rigging inventory of truss, motors, shackles, and control systems. The 10m Arc Stage is designed for audiences up to 5,000.

Revenue is generated through project-based professional services for end-to-end event production, one-time equipment hire to event organisers, and a dedicated B2B trade hire channel serving other production companies and contractors. The company operates a single UK entity with no subsidiaries, no external funding, and no disclosed parent company. Customer acquisition relies on the company website, regional SEO landing pages, free consultations, and word-of-mouth referrals built over 30 years of industry presence.
