Ideal stage masking is wings with legs. (Wings are the spaces on either side of the stage. Legs are the curtains in front of the wings.)

śruby mocujące


Explanation:
it is known that 'legs' don't have any wings as Mars had, so they should be 'fixing tolls' to keep the legs of the installation stable

Example sentence(s):

Reference: legs

Reference information:
Legs
The stage is equipped with four pairs of legs (pleated) which are black and measure 8' wide. Because the ceiling of the original stage area is taller than the newer addition, the lengths of the legs are different. The two downstage legs are 18' 6" long and the two upstage legs are 16' 0" long. They are presently fixed (not on swiveling roto locks) and angled upstage.

The legs' locations (based on squared, not angled positions) from the plaster line are as follows: - http://theplazaartscenter.com/facility/technical/
