The Backstage Handbook is one of the most widely-used stagecraft textbooks in the United States. It brings together under one cover an incredible variety of information useful to designers, technicians and students who work behind the scenes in theatre, film and television. Its sturdy leatherette binding will stand up to years of constant use.
Includes chapters on Tools, Hardware, Materials, Electrics, Shop Math, Architecture and Theatre, with hundreds of illustrations, tables and charts that cover everything from safe working loads for several kinds of rope to illustrations of twenty-two types of standard lamp bases. Our sales people use this on a regular basis to help clarify equipment terms, lamps, and connector types when speaking with many of our customers. Author: Paul Carter. Illustrator: George Chiang. 309 pages. |
