We have supplied this area to help give a general understanding of the principles, construction and operation of stage and theatre curtains and stage curtain tracking systems. It is hoped that it will provide some useful information to help lay out a stage or studio. Or at least, give some idea what should be provided.
Theatrequip also offers the ability to assist in the design and other specifications requirements that your theatre, stage or other performance project may have. For further information please contact us.
Stage Curtain Layout
Typical stage curtain and track layout to achieve a fully dressed stage. Main stage curtains can be of various types. In addition to providing a decorative cover for the proscenium opening, the main curtain must be opaque enough to obscure the stage lighting and deaden the sound of scene changes.
