Hi Melanie.....any more info you want to offer is great.  Right now the drops are stapled to the wall of the barn.....I have until June to figure out how to hang them. They are 16' wide and 8'tall...certainly not as big as yours but our theater is quite small too.  Our total ceiling height is 11 '.  I was thinking of hanging the drops up off of the stage..sort of centering them in the 11' space.  They are not very heavy but I still need to span at least 18' to 20' with a pipe or wire for them to hang from.  There are four of them for each play and they  must be changed fairly frequently. Although I don't look forward to it I think I am going to set grommets in the top of each drop...maybe 12-16" apart so that I can lace them into rings that slide on the pipe...or maybe put rings straight thru the grommets.....I don't know...I am sort of avoiding the issue by working on the costumes and building sets for "Virginia Woolf" which opens next week.  But I know that June will be here very soon and I don't want to be standing on the stage with a pile of canvass and no clue.   Any help would be appreciated.   Joan
