Hi Everyone Just doing some research at the mo... Does any theatre out there have a harness? (you know the type that you can suspend someone in mid air with) Can it be hired, borrowed or whatever? Regards Kate

What you need is a five point harness that are available at a saftey shop. They are not terribly expensive and then you now the history of the harness you are using. With a borrowed you don't. Also you want to make sure that a qualified rigger handles the rigging not just a knowledgeable technician. Sorry to sound anal but have seen a situation were some one has been seriously injured and has no recourse because a qualified rigger with theatrical knowledge was not used. a wheel chair is now their mode of transport
