fliggygeek Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 We just had our theatres cyc fallen through by a dancer, where do you source a cyc from? We assume its custom made, I'm in Australia, so we guess that its gonna have to be a custom job, its insured, we just need it in a month, (really ASAP, but we can tolerate it until then). Any pointers appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GridGirl Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Bytecraft Entertainment might be able to point you in the right direction - they won't make them, but I would think they'll definitely know who does. Staging Connections would be the other people to try...good luck! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richb Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Don't know any suppliers out there, but you could try your nearest Gerriets http://www.gerriets.com/en/contact/locations.php , I'm sure other more local folk will have other suggestions. hth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Static, 15m x ~10m, has a steel frame and flys in and out vertically. Uses an almost loose knitting style using really thin thread. Quite light (g/sqm) material, stretches over frame and is laced on with eyelets and rope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richb Posted May 20, 2011 Share Posted May 20, 2011 Speak to your LD (if you have a regular one), but I've known them to be very keen on something like an Opera Blue from Gerriets or similar, that's more like a projection fabric though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
