The cyclorama in the Metropolitan Opera, New York, is one of the largest in the world. This rollable stage backdrop impresses by its fantastic three dimensional effects.
Gerriets is the only expert worldwide who is able to fabricate such a backdrop. In the manufacturing process, extra heavy weight canvas is sewn, clamped, impregnated with flame retardant and painted with special color mixtures. This process enables absolutely true color and a seamless surface for projection.
The painted cyclorama is the true gem of traditional theater and opera. It reaches from the stage floor to the stage grid and surrounds the stage completely with its half cylinder shape. Creasefree and clamped, the cyclorama provides a brilliant backdrop and gives the illusion of width and depth. These backdrops are used in large theaters. Where you find them, you will also find Gerriets.
