Hello,

Our theatre company is producing Elton John's AIDA. We open in November, and we are having difficulty finding a drop that suits our needs.

We need a drop for the spa/pool scene. Ideally it would be a view of a pool deck from above, with a hole cut out of the center of the drop. We would light a cyc behind it.

Does anyone have any resources we could contact for a drop that would be suitable for a spa/pool scene for AIDA?

We're getting very anxious as we've been unable to locate anything thus far.

Sincerely,

Elaine Eltringham

I am having trouble picturing a view of a pool and deck from above being hung behind the actors....the purpose of the skewed angle is? (sorry I have not seen Elton John's Aida). I assume that you have tried all of the usual rental sites and no one is going to let you cut a hole in the drop? We need an ebay for the theater....there is probably something out there with plenty of holes but I don't know about a plan view of a deck.....sorry...
