Lighting, Audio, Rigging & Video suitable for all levels of education, from Primary to Specialist Drama Schools

AC-ET has grown a lot since its origins in the early 1970s as the Alpha Centauri Light Show. We are now one of the world’s leading suppliers of professional entertainment equipment, spanning lighting, video, audio and rigging.

It’s those very roots that allow the AC-ET team to understand and supply the smallest stages for primary schools, while still being able to meet the demand of the specialist drama schools who are moulding the futures West End Stars.
