I think this general class of software is called Show Control. There are commercial and open source projects that also do it in some form:

Plus a variety of Video DJ platforms like VDMX, Arkaos, GrandVJ, which have some of this functionality, and then a lot of free and commercial DMX-512 lighting control software and hardware that can be interfaced to these show control systems. Q-Lab is widely used in the stage show industry. Chataigne is one I hadn't heard of.
