Subject: Re: [Puptcrit] marionette "stage"


Heather,
One problem you have, is that you can't have a stage that is very high, 
since you will then have to worry about hitting your head on the 
ceiling, or the lighting fixtures hanging from it. I don't know how 
tall you are, but it sounds like you would want something 18" to 2' 
high. Is that true?
Also, for people to answer this question, they need to have some idea 
of how much space you need, and are you going to be moving around on 
all of this platform, or is some of it "puppet only", meaning it 
doesn't have to be as sturdy?


Greg
