Notes of interest:
· DS line marked at 6’ from lip of stage
· Grande Drape cuts performing area at 2+’ deep (so two feet of the performing area is DS of grande)
· Mid-traveler cuts performing area at 15+’ (although this will remain open & flown during the festival)
· Space between US line of performing area and US traveler is 6’
· Space between US line and cyc is 7’6”
· Space between US line and US wall is 8’ 6”
· Stage right wing has a stage manager’s panel and access stair which eliminates a bit of the wing space, but not much. Wall space both R and L in the wings is very limited (for leaning things against) due to equipment mounted to the walls.
· Performance area is partially DS of grande in order to have a comfortable and workable space between the US line and curtains. Orchestra pit is open and set at house level, but that creates a bit more depth to play to the house
