Entertainment Rigging: A Practical Guide for Riggers, Designers, and Managers H.M. Donovan, 2002 - Performing Arts "The work in this book is known as "arena rigging" because it was developed in arenas for circuses, ice shows and rock-and-roll. The techniques were so effective that they are now... the primary rigging system for all entertainment venues except counter-weight system theatres. Even in those buildings, they are now the best way to rig sound, lighting trusses and heavy scenery... [This book] presents both theoretical and practical components: principles of geometry and engineering (the basis for all rigging) combined with everyday work skills and shortcuts."--Introduction. Several hundred pages numbered in sections, plus appendices. |
