About

Inspired by the Lamplighter character in Le Petit Prince, our goal was to take an apparatus that is commonly used outdoors as ambiance entertainment and recreate it as a duo number that would fit in most cabarets and theaters.
 
The lamplighters light their street lamps every night, just to put them all out in the morning. A simple and repetitive job that can quickly get monotonous, but not tonight!

"When he lights his street lamp, it is as if he brought one more star to life, or one flower... That is a beautiful occupation. And since it is beautiful, it is truly useful.” --Le Petit Prince

The pole can be modified to fit in spaces as low as 5 meters, but used at it’s full height is just over 7 meters. It can be incorporated directly into theater stages, but also has a self-supporting base on wheels which can be opened up/closed down by 2 people in 15 seconds, and which allows the pole to be used in any setting.
