NOW IS THE TIME: When replacing stage drapes, this is the time to consider
    Draperies - do not allow backstage worklight bleed-through.
            should be a different fabric or style (flat, pleated, gathered, etc.).
            are sufficiently bottom weighted to remain stable during usual backstage activities.
            have moderate stage floor clearance.
            permit a brighter, vari-colored stage environment (light reflective gray, tan, or blue).
    Rigging - should not jam, bind, or be noisy. Check hangers, carriers, track mountings, and pulley attachments.
            can support an increased load if heavier drapes are desired.
            are straight and level (including with stage).
            are at the most desireable height(s) for all rigging including lighting.
            should be relocated or rechanneled to expand useable stage width and/or depth or cross-stage access.
    Lighting - should be relocated or expanded to better illuminate performance area.
THEN, remeasure all drapery rigging widths and hanging lengths.
