These are to very large corporations in the theater world and to see them both merge is a big deal. Both companies have made several products that have become a go-to item for theaters across the country. What Wagner is the theater world Kleenex is to the tissue world? It has really become the industry standard and can be seen on Broadway all the way to my old high school drama department. I am interested to see how these corporations work together and put the high-level experience in one room. Both of these companies have acted as pioneers for the theater world and I think many people will benefit from this merger. I hope theaters use this company as a resource for solutions for the theater world that can then be incorporated into their product line. I look forward to seeing what direction Wagner corporation goes in and how they will continue to make groundbreaking discoveries for the theater world.
