A stage is dressed with more than one curtain. The front curtain opens and closes the show. A valance hides the track above it. Wings at the sides and borders overhead hide the backstage area and the lights, and a backdrop closes the rear. Each is made to the measurements of the stage it hangs on.
We make and fit stage curtains for schools, colleges, parish and community halls, auditoriums and hotel banquet stages in Goa.

Stage Curtains: Questions and Answers
Which fabric is used for stage curtains?
Heavy velvet or velour. It hangs in deep folds, absorbs sound and does not let stage light show through. For public halls, a flame-retardant fabric is advised.
What is the price of stage curtains in Goa?
It depends on the size of the stage, the fabric, how many parts are wanted and whether the track is manual or motorised. We measure free of charge in Goa and quote before work starts.
What does fullness mean in a stage curtain?
The extra fabric gathered into pleats. A curtain made with more fullness uses more fabric, hangs in deeper folds and blocks light better.
Can a stage curtain be motorised?
Yes. A motorised track opens and closes the curtain from a switch or remote, which suits wide stages and heavy curtains.
Do you make curtains for school stages?
Yes. A school hall usually needs a front curtain, a valance, side wings and a backdrop. We measure the stage and make the set to fit.
