The fly height is the name given to the
height
of the
roof
above the top of the
proscenium arch
in a
theatre
. Full fly height means that there is enough room to hide something that would be full
height
on
stage
, above
stage
, completely
hiding
it. Most (if not all) of the larger
professional
theatres
will have full fly height, but the majority of
smaller
,
amateur
, and
school
theatres
will not.
The other common fly height is where there is only just about enough room to hide a
lighting bar
- often needing borders in front to hide anything hanging down. In a
theatre
with less available fly height, there is not really the possibility to hide
scenery
in the roof - it all has to be stored in the
wings
.
