Summary
L’infedeltà delusa is a simple Tuscan story of a peasant father Filippo arranging the marriage of his daughter, Sandrina, to a rich farmer, Nencio. Sandrina respects her father but already loves Nanni, a humble gardener, with the whole arrangement thrown upside down as Nanni’s sister, Vespina, is infatuated with Nencio. - Bachtrack.com

Lift doors
For the lift doors we had he specific design note that the SR and SL doors had to close in time with one another and meet up flush in bang on centre stage. in order to do this we decided to use a pulley system. This was a closed loop of rope that ran from the floor SL, up through a pulley on the track along to the SR pulley and then back over SL and down the the floor. The sections of rope that ran across the top of the track were then attached to each of the doors with builders band.
Lift wall Panels
For the changing walls in the lift we used double sided panels that slid in to a gap between the celing and walls. Each panel had a sloped wooden wedge at the top that allowed them to sit at the exact hight of the wall, this was necessary as the ceiling of the lift sloped down on the upstage end.
Prep Work
To prep for the fit up we decided to pre rig the large truss cube that sat behind the wall and had the door track attached to it. We did this as it allowed us to spend more time with the main wall as it was very tedious and needed extra time to be installed safely.
Flies
Confetti drop
For the confetti drop we hemp flew two 6m staff pipes and attached a large piece of tat which with then had lots of holes cut in it. to drop the confetti the upstage bar fas flown in and out repeatedly to allow the confetti to fall through the holes in the tat.
Flying cloths
All 5 of the clothes were individually hemp flown with the 3 SR going off the the fly floor and the 2 SL running to prop side flies. each hemp line had a double figure 8 knot at the end and then shackled to the red hooks. To attach the cloth to the hooks we just tied the middle of the cloth with a constrictor knot then clove hitched that the to hooks.
