You can add it to a schedule and enable repeat at the end of the schedule.

Do not ask to know all the answers, but ask to understand the question.

You can easily do it with the preview if you don't need audio. I used this trick at the Expo. Put an off effect on the bottom layer of a model and stretch it all the way across the sequence. Then select the off effect which will cause the previews to loop forever covering the whole sequence. Click output to lights and it should loop the entire sequence repeatedly.

You should also be able to use the Scheduler to play the sequence repeating I'm just not familiar with that functionality.
