We are most likely doing "Cats" next spring. Of course, we need to lift the Kitty up to heaven on the tire
Research has shown me that a scissors lift built into the stage set is the best/really only way to do the lift (I'm not really going to do the stairs that meet the tire as "operable" - just a visual).
I've got a local big-name crane & lift company willing to install, train, and set up the lockout/tagout on the lift. Here's my remaining problem:
I'm putting together the proposal for our Risk Management people. Could any of you who HAVE done "Cats" with a scissors-lift drop me a reply stating that you used a scissors lift for this purpose with your theatre group - I'd like to offer the RM folks examples of other groups' usage to show it's "normal." A photo could be great too.
Thanks!
Mike
