PunQtum is now part of the backstage communication system at Teatro alla Scala in Milan, one of the world’s most iconic opera houses.
The theatre has replaced a fragmented mix of communication tools with a single Riedel intercom system. Riedel Bolero wireless forms the core, and PunQtum devices cover roles that need extra flexibility. Together they connect stage managers, lighting, audio and video teams, fly tower staff, streaming crews and the director.
La Scala is a demanding building for comms. Staircases, lifts and acoustically sensitive spaces like the orchestra pit and director’s booth all make reliable communication difficult. The new system now runs across the stage, stage tower, backstage, foyers, museum, light and audio booths and the orchestra pit.
The theatre reports faster setup and turnaround, lower labour costs and better coordination between departments. Smaller teams can now work in different parts of the building and stay fully connected.
