Curtains, Rigging, & Theatrical Supplies

Stage Curtains, Backdrops, and Fabric Creations

When it comes to theatrical draperies, I. Weiss is recognized industry-wide for outstanding craftsmanship and premium service. We like to work on all types of projects - large or small. From basic stage masking and backdrops to elaborate show curtains and architectural draperies, all jobs receive the same attention and care. In addition to our traditional drapery work, we offer fiber optic curtains and drops, digitally printed backdrops, projection screens, rain curtains, and pipe & drape systems.

At I. Weiss we believe just about anything is possible - be it moving projection walls for a museum or a veil for an entire gas station. We enjoy a creative challenge, and take pride in our ability to find practical solutions to innovative design ideas.

Rigging and Installation

I. Weiss is one of the premier rigging contractors in the country. We offer manual and motorized rigging systems for new construction as well as renovations. We also install fire safety curtain systems and dead hung pipe grids for theatres and studios.

Our staff can design and install complete rigging packages for any size venue or special event. With over thirty years of experience to draw from, our rigging experts are able to devise creative and practical solutions to fit even the strictest design and budget constraints.

Theatrical Supplies

As an extension of our drapery fabrication and rigging services, I. Weiss is a growing theatrical supply house. We offer anything from portable staging and dance floor to hampers and sand bags with a substantial inventory of scenic fabric, curtain track, suspension hardware, rope and pipe grid components.
