Chip Theatre.A table, a script,a role.

A staged robbery that runs to a script for a full evening. Guests are split into crews, draw a role card and work four rooms: the chip floor, the safe corridor, the radio desk and the getaway briefing. Chips and credits are props handed out at the door, and the casino-themed floor is one of the four rooms, not the whole night.

An equipment zone we bring on top of any programme in the catalogue: four rental cabinets on free play, parked on their own 6 x 3 m stand. Two of them are mechanical slots with metal reels and a side lever, the other two are video slots with a button deck.

• Cabinet size 70 x 60 x 180 cm each, 110 to 140 kg, moved on a stair climber

• Power: one 15 A circuit per two cabinets, standard 120 V outlets within 10 m

• Here the word slot means the mechanism only: a reel set and a lever, running on free play
• One attendant for the whole zone, hours matched to the programme

Adaptable inside the price: Cabinet count from two to six, the mix of mechanical and video, and where the zone sits in the room.
