How best to hang a person from the ceiling.
He needs to actually fall from the rafters in a straight jacket.

I know that this isn't really a good question, as there are so many variables, but what does a company like Sapsis or Foy charge to come in and provide a service such as flying a person for the show described? Just curious.
This is what I get for working long huge gigs. I had my "safety police" hat on and everybody else already did it for me! Cool!
Guess I'll have to go be crusty somewhere else now.
(P.S. Hire a real rigging/flying company!) There. I feel so much better now.
Not me! I'm on salary!

Oh Sure I get the same if I'm working 60,80,100 hours or 40. but I can also post on controlbooth and not clock out. Wait a minute that doesn't sound nearly as cool as I would like.......
My very first IA gig was the load in for On The Town with Phillis Newman at the Imperial Theater in NY. We did five 16 hour days starting on a Saturday. Sunday started at time and a half for the first 8 and double for the second. Monday was a national holiday. Tuesday was rehearsals and Wednesday rehearsal and evening Preview. I grossed around 2K which was a lot of money in 1971.
BTW, I was on the Props crew and our gear was on the last of the seven semi's, didn't do a thing till Monday night.
