The stage is a machine for worlds. Rigging flies scenery; trapdoors/lifts reconfigure floors; automation keeps cues tight.
🛠️ Core Systems
- Grid and fly: linesets, pulleys, counterweights.
- Floor mechanics: traps, lifts, wagons.
- Cueing and safety: lockouts, checklists, rehearsals.
| System | Function | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Fly | Vertical moves | Balance and braking |
| Traps | Sudden reveals | Guard and rails |
| Lifts | Level changes | Synchronization |
✅ Safety Checklist
- Daily line inspection.
- Clear fall‑zones.
- Red‑tag faulty gear; log fixes.
Magic is discipline behind the scenes.
Peek at the rigging plots; they read like music scores.
