Robert Roth

Bio:

Robert A. Roth, Vice President of Live Events at 4Wall Entertainment and Founder of Eccentric Design, continues to shape live event production with the inventive streak that launched his career nearly six decades ago. A rare triple threat, Roth seamlessly bridges business, design, and technology to navigate complex productions from every angle, overseeing strategy for major stadium tours, broadcast productions, and corporate events.

Across his career, Roth has been a creative visionary for globally recognized artists, including Eagles, Billy Joel, Metallica, Justin Bieber, Eric Church, Bad Bunny, The Jacksons, and Ozzy Osbourne, as well as “The Trilogy Tour” featuring Enrique Iglesias, Pitbull, and Ricky Martin.

His journey started at just 14 in Athens, Georgia, where he created his first projection performance, “The Aurora Lite Show.” Choosing the road over Georgia Tech, he found mentorship from industry veterans like Lynyrd Skynyrd’s original road manager and founded R.A. Roth, Inc. in 1975. A major milestone came in the early 1980s with his lighting design for The Jacksons’ “Victory Tour,” elevating his work globally. Always innovating, he integrated early CAD systems into his workflow through ventures like Source Point Design.

Roth later joined Production Resource Group (PRG) in 1997 as Vice President, spent 15 years as a Sales Executive at Christie Lites, and eventually transitioned to 4Wall Entertainment. His diverse portfolio also spans television, festivals, Tyler Perry's stage tours, and historic political events, including Barack Obama’s 2008 election night broadcast.

A dedicated mentor, Roth remains driven by one core philosophy: stay curious, stay committed, and make it work.
