Staging covers a huge variety of products and services; scenery, stage curtains, drapes, trussing, rigging, hoists, lifts, smoke curtains, lifts, acoustics equipment, winches and thats just a small selection!
From a staging company you can expect the following services:
equipment supplies
equipment installation
stage design
safety inspections
and more!
Some companies offer all products and all services, and some specialise in the job lot. You need, at planning stage, (pardon the pun!) to think about what type of company you will use. If you need to use several – example, one to supply fabrics, one to design the stage etc you may need a professional stage services project manager.
