Live Entertainment Engineering

Our team leverages innovation and creativity to bring astounding live performances to life.

KCI’s entertainment engineers have been behind some of the most prestigious concert stages, theatrical shows, aerial performances, and pop-up events. We expertly craft detailed production engineering designs featuring advanced staging, unique mechanized effects, and custom-built structures capable of safely pushing creative and technical boundaries while adhering to industry standards and regulations.

Supporting experiences such as iconic Broadway shows and large-scale tours for well-known artists like the Rolling Stones and Lady Gaga, we collaborate with clients worldwide, mitigating production concerns through structural and mechanical engineering, theatrical rigging, show action equipment, modular systems design, theming design, and other solutions. With a specialty in designing performer flying systems and motion equipment, KCI’s experts analyze system redundancy, braking requirements, and acrobatic load factors, performing risk assessments where needed to maintain the highest level of performer safety.
