Theatrical Effects

Smoke, haze, fog, and strobe effects may be used in AMTSJ-produced shows and touring productions presented by AMTSJ. The fluid used in smoke/haze machines is made from water-based materials; each approved by the FDA and conforming to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) regulations. The fluid comes with a material safety data sheet (see link below for more information).

Whenever smoke, haze, fog, and/or stroboscopic effects are used, clear warning signs are placed at the theatre to forewarn susceptible people. Strobes are never used for prolonged periods.

All special effects for AMTSJ-produced shows are approved by our Technical Director and the Director of Production.
