#fly system

I was rigging up some scenery for the upcoming concert and I had a brilliant idea: I should teach Ren to run the fly system! It would completely eliminate the need for complicated pulley and counterweight systems if he just used the Force to move set pieces or people in and out!

Hey so, random query. First, let me state that I’m one of those directors who doesn’t always have a tech director beyond somebody’s dad who knows how to use power tools. 

So, in our school, we have a Fly system. When we put on our production of Peter Pan, there was four kids on it. It takes 3 people to operate our fly system.

At one point, the rowdy middle school orchestra wanted to preform in the theatre, so we let them.

Now would be worth mentioning that we were about to replace the fly cables, as ours were a bit old. But we still had to put up with the old ones on opening night.

But, because everything hates us, the night of the show, we saw that the cables had been messed with. It could have only been the middle schoolers.

There’s no way we could’ve done without the fly system, because it was Peter’s system, and it would’ve been impossible to do the scenes without him flying, especially on the scene where he fights Captain Hook.
