The tour started in Ottawa, Canada and continued via West Palm Beach to Vero Beach, Fort Lauderdale and finished in at the Carnegie Hall in New York.

About the orchestra:

The Brussels Philharmonic was founded in 1935 by the Belgian public broadcaster (NIR/INR). Over the years, the orchestra has performed with many top conductors and soloists. It enjoys an excellent reputation for performing premieres of new works and has collaborated with world-renowned composers such as Bartók, Stravinsky, Messiaen and Francesconi.

The orchestra’s historic home port is the Flagey building, where it rehearses and performs in Studio 4 – in acoustic terms one of the top concert halls in the world – and which serves as its home base for concerts in Brussels, Flanders and Europe.

GPS Global managed to ship the full set of the "Kings of War" production from International Theatre Amsterdam (former Toneelgroep Amsterdam to Taiwan.

Base load: 3x 40'HC - approx 20 tons of professional stage equipment.

Kings of War combines Henry V, Henry VI and Richard III into a single, explosive play about leadership.

For his portrayal of Richard III, Hans Kesting received the Louis d’Or in 2016. The play was also selected for the National Dutch Theatre Festival that same year. The jury’s report read: ‘Performed with crystal clear directing, breathtaking scenography and with perfect musical accompaniment, Toneelgroep Amsterdam demonstrates Shakespeare’s immortality during the 400th anniversary of his death. Let’s hope this Kings of war will be performed regularly in the Netherlands.’
