Puppeteer here- I would have been surprised if the choreographer went for it. Tying dancers to a batten or other fixed structure would limit their mobility too much for great staging. How about if each of them have their own control system like a real marionette? Affix one sturdy rod running from a harness on their backs up to an airplane type control (T bar or other of designer’s choosing) and run the elastic/bungee combos down to their limbs from there?
