Chicagoland theatre sound and lights, packaged
AV By Dan has sound and lighting packages for performing arts events across the Chicagoland area. From school musicals to full-scale productions, we handle the gear so your cast can shine.
Most companies sell you a system. We start with your room.
Our sound packages start with the basics and scale up: small rooms need clarity, big stages need power. Each one is a starting point, not a straightjacket.
Small package
Up to 8 wireless microphones, small PA system for clean, clear audio for up to 200 seats. Voices land crisp.
Medium package
Up to 16 wireless microphones, medium-sized PA for more coverage, more inputs. Made for when your cast needs to be heard.
Large package
Up to 32 wireless microphones, large-sized PA for bigger houses. Every seat gets the same show.
Custom package
Your script, your voices, your space. We build the audio around the production, not the other way.
Sound design add-on
Dialogue, efx, and music cues as audio that hits at the right moment. We mix like a show, not a mic check.

Will the lighting match the mood of every scene?
The right light turns a good show into a memorable one. Here is how we cover the stage, from spotlights to moving fixtures. We offer light fixtures and lighting consoles that are Tech Theatre favorites.
Spotlights
Pin a lead performer with a sharp, focused beam. The classic tool for solos, monologues, and announcements.
Wash Lights
Even, soft color across the full stage. We use it to set the tone for a scene with subtle, blended hues.
Followspots
A dedicated operator tracks the action as actors move. We stay with them so the focus never breaks.
Moving Lights
Programmed fixtures that pan, tilt, and change color on cue. Add bold accents without relighting the rig.
Lighting Consoles
A flexible control desk tied to the cues of the show. Run timed transitions that keep the pace tight.
