Equipment For Sale from DesignLab Rental Shop

Larry Schoeneman is closing DesignLab’s rental shop and is selling all of its lighting equipment inventory. After more than forty years of working in the Chicago theatrical community, it is time for me to better use what I know about lighting and be less involved with the taxing physical work of moving gear around. Therefore, I am closing DesignLab’s rental shop and will sell all of its equipment: lights, cable, truss and everything in between. We will be open for this sale from Friday June 22 through Monday June 2, from 8 AM through 6 PM. The terms for this sale are cash only – no checks or credit cards – and the equipment must be paid for before it leaves the building.

I have loved working with the entire performing arts community. Thank you for your friendship over the years. So, come down for a cup of coffee or to buy some gear. Hope to see you here.
