Problems with the Cubes!

Bee Enchanted cic

So one of the first things I wanted to work on was the relationship  between the dancer/s and the lighting  on the cubed podiums I had created for Zodiac Light. The problem was they are extremely heavy and big! too big to fit through a standard door and too heavy to carry! umm!  IN  ACE bid Id been kindly offered space at Dance City and Arts Centre Washington i.e. they were meant to move..  so whats a girl going to do?! 

Cubes dont fit into the car.
