Hello,
I am the Assistant Director of a high school putting on a production of Aida. We plan to buy a sky blue seamless cyc for this show. I've done a lot of research and read many threads on this forum to try to figure out the best cyc to purchase, and would appreciate some feedback on my choice.
Northeast Stage quoted me at $880 for the following specifications:
Color: Sky Blue
Out stage is only around 40' wide so a 32' seems to fit nicely. We will be installing a pulley just for this cyc and future backdrops.
Will I need anything else to ensure the cyc hangs well? Any other finishings or special features? I'm new to purchasing this kind of equipment and would greatly appreciate some feedback.
Also, Rosebrand quoted me at a much higher price ($1,264.44) for a similar product:
Type: Seamless Muslin Drop
Quantity: 1 Identical Piece
Size: 20'0" High x 32'0" Wide
Fabric: FR LT Blue Muslin
Top Finish: Webbing grommets ties
Side Finish: On-Stage Edge: 2" hem, Offstage Edge: 2" hem
Bottom Finish: Pipe pocket on back w/skirt
Is the a significant difference between the two? I know Rosebrand is supposed to be a great company but the price difference just doesn't make sense to me. Any insight would be great.
Thanks!
Adam
