Stump the Rigger at USITT!
And the winner is...Ann Cadaret of Palm Beach Atlantic University!  Ann's question about the load rating of her very oddball ceiling in a black box theatre was unanimously chosen for the prestigious Jack Suesse Memorial Stump the Rigger trophy. Ann gets bragging rights with the trophy until next year when it's awarded at the USITT conference in Cincinnati, Ohio. Check out the SRI Facebook page for more pictures from USITT 2014, including great caricature art of visitors to our booth! _____________________________________________________
