Many lighting companies all over the world employ someone who can speak English. Once I find out who this person is, I start corresponding. The first thing I like to do is get a list of truss and fixtures that are available at the time I will be there. Then I quickly compare that list to my plot and start editing. If there is something they cannot replicate (like a preferred media server) then I make plans to bring one with me.
