Via Funchal 's scenographic project is innovative and original: a fully adjustable stage with large dimensions, grandiosity and numerous resources, an orchestra pit and spacious working area for the production team. Everything was combined to give flexibility for the production of all kinds of shows.

In order to ease the work and assure total safety for the show, all equipment is automatized, fail-safe and with built-in cables.

Via Funchal also offers means of recording and transmitting shows and events live by mobile units connected to special cables and to the internal circuits of the house.
