When You're Not Allowed to Paint the Floor

Matt Kizer: Scenic & Lighting Design: I will explain the reasons for these choices, but let me start out with where this is headed: I recommend covering the floor with sheets of luan, allowing nothing but friction and gravity to hold them all in place, and covering the seams with cheap, wide masking tape. At strike, pull the floor up and stack the sheets backstage. Put them back down for the next show and paint them again.
