The Art & Science of Performer Flying

By Delbert L Hall

This book is about creating manual performer flying effects for theatrical productions and the systems required to create them. It includes a little about history of performer flying (starting in the late 1800s), a lot of the design of different types of manually operated performer flying systems, a good deal on harnesses, some information on operating those systems and creating flying effects, information on components, safety, and working with professional performer flying companies. It documents much of what I have learned about performer flying in the past 40 plus years.
