Why does every school get new stage rigging? Is that really a priority?
This is a safety issue. We have concerns that some of the lights and curtains in our schools stage areas may be unsafe. We would inspect each of our stage areas, and would like to replace stage rigging where needed. The bond provides funding to replace stage furnishings; otherwise we might be in the position of removing the old stage equipment for safety’s sake, meaning the stage itself would be far less useful for performances, classes and learning.
