stage curtaining/drapes Explanation: Well, that's the general term. In the sentence you have, it seems to be talking about the curtaining for the entire stage, which means: back tabs (at the back of the stage - but not backstage) legs (curtains which create the wings) borders (which hide things like lighting and scenery battens) and possibly the house curtain (or grand curtain - Am. Eng.). A lot depends on the context. Is it, for example, a technical rider? Or is it, for example, a plan for rennovation. If it's the latter, there may well be more - you might want to check with the client :-) The references below give you some drawings. http://tinyurl.com/for5w http://tinyurl.com/gpru5 http://tinyurl.com/evczs http://tinyurl.com/heem4 -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 47 mins (2006-09-13 01:22:34 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I should have added that if it's just a rider, then, IMHO, stage curtaining should be enough :-) -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 11 hrs (2006-09-13 11:46:32 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Well, since it's a list of technical requirements, I would probably write: '. . . all stage curtaining/drapes (back tabs, legs, borders etc.)' |
