Proscenium opening:
Rigging - varies depending on the center stage configuration
F.O.H. rigging points: not very accessible between #1, #2, and #3 lighting bridges. Points consist of graded steel eye-bolts protruding through ceiling directly above bridges. Rigging requires significant bridling to clear lighting bridges and ceiling baffles. F.O.H. rigging requires sufficient advance notice.
Stage rigging points: points are available virtually anywhere in the flyloft (Lyric). Low-load points taken directly from the grid's overhung I-beams and requires bridling.
No-rigging zone: between the F.O.H. rigging points and the flyloft, approximately 19' wide upstage to downstage and spanning the entire width of the auditorium. In-The-Round Configuration, the no-rigging zone lies directly above the center of the stage. Lighting and sound truss running upstage to downstage must be able to span the no-rigging zone. Minimum truss length upstage to downstage is 20' (outside dimensions). In Arena, Cabaret, and Concert with ceiling panels above stage, rigging points downstage and midstage points between panels. Three (3) holes in the upstage panels. Rear wall can move +12' upstage for grid access and deeper staging.
Rigging accessories include: span sets, steel slings, shackles, spotting sheaves, hand line, and 15 one ton chain motors, 2 half ton chain motors, six (6) 500lb chain motors, trussing sections and safety equipment available upon request. Not all motors are available at all times.
In Arena and Concert as few as four one ton motors are available as the rest are used for house set-up. Note: The house employs very strict safety guidelines involving rigging. All rigging is to be approved and/or modified as necessary by the Master Carpenter/Rigger.
