Gateway Studios & Production Services (GSPS) has officially opened its studio complex in Chesterfield, MO. Now active and in high demand, the immense and highly-advanced rehearsal and production campus is hosting clients on-site, with new bookings continuing to build. The 32-acre facility is designed to meet the demands of the most complex touring productions, television and film projects, and high-end corporate events – offering a seamless, purpose-built environment for creatives and crews to prepare, collaborate, and execute at the highest level.
“We set out to build a space that solves real challenges for artists and crews preparing to take their tour on the road,” said Trey Kerr, CEO of Gateway Studios & Production Services. “Our facility reflects that vision – purpose-built, flexible, and ready to meet the demands of any production.”
Studios Now Open and Welcoming New Clients
Since opening, GSPS has begun hosting a variety of clients and productions, and the momentum continues to grow. Production teams are engaging the full capabilities of the complex – from rehearsal and staging to on-site support services, technical infrastructure, production support, and more.
The campus also features three fully equipped previsualization (pre-vis) suites, built to give creative teams a streamlined, comfortable space to design and refine lighting, video, and staging elements before hitting the studio floor. Additionally, secure storage facilities for touring acts are available now.
