MOUNT OLIVE TOWNSHIP, NJ – An impressive performance of The Little Mermaid gave the head of Mount Olive Township’s Board of Education, Dr. Larrie Reynolds, the plan for a final visual touch for the performing arts community – a 25mm PixelFLEX LED FLEXCurtain video wall.

Reynolds and Mt. Olive Performing Arts Center Technical Director Trevor Campbell turned to the portability and high definition that the FLEXCurtain is recognized for.
“We wanted it to be portable and that’s what sold us on it – that you can just take the curtains down and wrap them up like sleeping bags, and put them in road cases to transport,” Campbell said.
When it’s not being deployed at the middle school for their productions, Mt. Olive’s FLEXCurtain will be housed at the 1400+ seating performing arts center’s central location at the high school. Having hosted acts such as Jim Breuer, The Glen Miller Orchestra and The Dallas Brass and Glen Burtnik, the center will go on to offer the benefits of the FLEXCurtain to future musical, theatrical and comedic performances.
“Everyone knows me around the district, so I go over to help at other schools and the secretaries and the teachers are like, ‘oh yeah that LED wall curtain thing was really crazy, I couldn’t keep my eyes off it,’” Campbell laughed. “It’s kind of been the talk of the town, really.”
Weighing at 67 lbs. per panel, the FLEXCurtain offers Mt. Olive’s performing arts center video capabilities when other LED video panels cannot do the job due to weight constrictions. The PixelFLEX series of LED video walls also offers ease of use, making training efficient for technical and video directors who are new to LED video technology.
“For the vast amount of uses that Mt. Olive will get out of it, the FLEXCurtain was an obvious choice for them,” said PixelFLEX Senior Sales Representative Will Dickey. “Continuing to see the different applications our clients use all of our products, but specifically this one, is huge for everyone involved, and the FLEXCurtain will only continue to enhance and become more accessible and ideal for those looking for high quality and sensible LED video solutions.”
