Panthea is the European leader in innovative surtitling solutions for the performing arts.
We have a solid network of highly qualified professionals based primarily in France and Germany, who have been active in the field of surtitling for over two decades.
Our team has been amongst the first to introduce regular surtitling to international audiences, particularly in Berlin and Paris. We remain at the forefront of innovation by continuously developing our expertise, implementing new technologies, and collaborating with some of the most renowned artists and experts.
LED panels have a triple advantage over conventional surtitle video projectors:
- They emit no residual light. Only the text is displayed, the rest of the screen remains perfectly black
- They remain legible in virtually all circumstances, regardless of the lighting environment
- They are perfectly silent
Panthea offers different types of LED panels for rent and sale, including:
- 50 x 50 cm tiles, which can be assembled in a variety of formats;
- Custom-made panels for less common formats, such as reminder screens, for example 150 x 25 cm for small rooms or as a support for readability in the first rows or in places with a restricted view of the surtitles.
A particular focus is placed on the hanging systems and cabling details. Unlike standard solutions offered by most manufacturers, which use heavy rigging bars designed for large video walls, Panthea has developed an extremely discreet sling suspension system (called “invisible suspension”) and custom-makes hybrid power and data cables, so that the connection visible to the audience over the last few metres is elegantly integrated and practically imperceptible.
For all projects, Panthea ensures the most aesthetically pleasing integration possible into the stage design and venue architecture.
The screens developed by Panthea come in two main versions.
- [SOOB] – ‘Supertitles Out of the Box’: A mobile version that is quick and easy to install, disassemble and store, for rooms with one-off requirements, or for touring productions
- Fixed installation: Adapted to the infrastructure of any type of venue, with or without a protective frame
[SOOB] – Our Solution for One-Off Uses or Tours

[SOOB] or ‘Supertitles Out of the Box’ is a system delivered in flightcases, containing all the LED equipment needed for touring or for one-off use in your venue.
