Greek term or phrase: σταγκόνι, υπερσκήνιο

Καλησπέρα,
Και οι 2 είναι θεατρικού τεχνικοί όροι. Τα σταγκόνια είναι οριζόντια ξύλινα δοκάρια ή σιδερένιοι σωλήνες που βρίσκονται στην οροφή κατά μήκος της σκηνής και ανεβοκατεβαίνουν με τροχαλίες. Εκεί δένονται και ανεβοκατεβαίνουν τα σκηνικά και οι προβολείς.
Καμιά ιδέα για τους αντίστοιχους αγγλικούς όρους;

Ευχαριστώ
Βασίλης

σταγκόνι, υπερσκήνιο batten

Explanation:
batten -- long iron pipe that stretches across the stage and upon which scenery or drops are hung

from the glossary below, the other answer giving this reference, is inaccurate I believe, as it refers to the space and not the actual apparatus.

That\'s for σταγκόνι, for υπερσκήνιο of course the above answer is correct, I think... I forgot there were two questions...
