• To keep it short... This book is a MUST HAVE in your theatrical library. If you are a technical director, stagecraft instructor, stagehand, rigger, scenic designer, theatrical carpenter, or just have any inclination of doing anything dealing with theatrical rigging or scenery, this book is a must read.
  
  The author did a great job making this an easy read. I come back to this book time and time again, it has even, on more than one occasion, make me want to write my own book, just because of the way I feel after reading a few chapters, confirming my existing knowledge!
  
  I've shared this book with ton's of co-workers, students, and stagehands alike.
• This book is a strong and straight froward approach to teaching the ideas of theatrical rigging. The section on automated rigging does not offer much insight beyond the concept of replacing the human operator with an automated system which goes in and out on a rail system. If you are a stagehand or part of any technical production team you should have this book in your library.
• Extremely fast shipping, completely recommended book, chocked full of valuable information for the stage rigging industry. A must have
• A great book and a must have for people who are in the industry - or thinking about it.
  
  As a Rigging Manager for a theatrical contracting company, I'd suggest this as the go-to book for anyone that works with/around rigging on a stage. Good, solid information that even gives some great information on insider information on safety and inspections.. etc.
  
  Worth the price and worth the read.
• Very good reference book.
• Lots of good information
• The basic introductory textbook to the subject, absolutely required reading for those involved in technical theatre.
• This book is a great resource for any theatre. Makes rigging safer and is easy to follow
