Tait Towers Lighting and Staging Company - 1979
"The long-lasting relationships we forge with our clients is evidenced by our nine-year relationship with Madonna, which encompasses four international tours. For MDNA, we supplied all staging elements, including a unique LED lift matrix - its beauty the sum of complex behind-the-scenes engineering and effortless on-stage fluidity.
One of the most complex LED lift matrixes to have ever been built, the lifts were clad with 15mm video panels on four sides. Capable of moving at a rate of 67cm per second and reaching a height of 4.78m, the box-shaped lifts offered unrivalled stability for performers. Ease of transport was a fundamental part of the design, with the lifts packaged in dollies which formed the stage structure.
Programmed with our award-winning Navigator Control System, the LED-integrated lift matrix provided the infrastructure for a constantly evolving stage. Crucially, when retracted, the lift surfaces were precisely and absolutely flush with the floor in order to create a seamless performance surface.
We also provided the automation which rotated eight video panels - the backdrop for a show that was dramatic from start to finish, including this cathedral-based opening scene. The confessional box, also seen here, was smoothly lowered onto the stage and demonstrates our expertise in scenic construction." ~ Tait Towers

Madonna’s idea of what she thinks is entertaining to an audience is second to none. This is what an A game looks like. 🙋♀️
Great video for behind the scenes World International Touring for Madonna. Everything from production, choreography, sound testing.....
Hats off to all employees of the world behide the scene...
this video made me want to buy the blue ray of the show. Thanks!
Great vid
How entertaining and so bloody clever
Bravoooo
I always wanted to know the cost of all this, M demands the best and certainly does get it.
Word to Michael Tait: Gurl, ditch the sunglasses in the interview. You are NOT Madonna.
5:12 - This guy has OnlyFans? Asking for a friend... 😌

. I enjoyed the video quite a lot. The thing is: I saw the show live twice. It didn't look good. It was like a Vegas show and Madonna is not Vegas artist. I mean, it was flashy but not beautiful. In any case It's probably Madonna's fault. She's the brain and the boss of the whole tour, rigth? And her performance was mostly mechanical (Like the whole stage set).
Madonna's concerts have gotten more technical because her music has gotten worse. It's a distraction for the fans.
Rebel Heart and MDNA were great albums. Her music has evolved with the times and she's amazing, still. And as a FAN, I love Madonna whether she has a stage or not.
ARE U KIDDING? STFU
atrocchia or she wants to put a great fucking show like nobody else, like she always does, cus she's the Queen Of Pop, forever.
Sad but true, I still love her but damn her fake cheeks and voice is rediculous
Madonna's concerts have been spectacular for years and years, also when her albums were really awesome (like the Ray of Light era). But unfortunately her music has gotten much more boring. Personally I think her records from Hard Candy on have gone downhill. I didn't liked her last albums but I never missed her concerts until this last one. Madame X is the worst album of her IMHO and I didn't bother to buy tickets for her last tour.
I don't like this tour I'm not fan at all
Shut up
Crazy. Her most epic tour. It's incredible.
Agree I saw it in Hyde Park
Def my least fav tour
