Hawthorn Theatrical UK

‘Hawthorns have had a long relationship with SES, making temporary distribution boards often at short notice. SES have been able to cope with very specific designs where they’ve been able to create full specifications, through garbled messages from site when last minute changes are developing. Their attention to detail and fair pricing make them an easy/natural choice.’
