Keith Urban Residency
Project: Keith Urban Residency
Location: The Zappos Theatre at Planet Hollywood, Las Vegas, NV
Fabrics Used: 25oz. Black Carbonight®
Fabrication Lead Time: 6 Weeks
Scope of Work
Transforming a venue for a new artist residency show in Las Vegas is no easy task. While
exhibiting at LDI in Las Vegas, we met with Keith Urban’s team who were at the beginning
stages of putting together his new residency. Within a few days of the meeting, we began
putting the pieces together on what would ultimately lead to a complete overhaul of the stage,
requiring the collaboration of some of the industry's leading scenic fabricators and hardware
companies to accomplish.
Superior sound quality was a critical component in the redesign. Working closely with the
project’s designers, our signature, IFR 25oz Carbonight® was selected to create all the soft
goods used on the stage. From the proscenium to the stage curtains and traveling flats,
Carbonight® delivered the sound absorbency and blackout the team required.
Within just a few short weeks our LA-based Installation Team was onsite, working side by side
with the venue crew and our Las Vegas partners, ensuring each element was installed and
fabricated to spec.
