Velvet backdrop sets retro vibe on stage

Australia
December 2022

Place nine drummers, nine dancers and a lot of rock’n’roll on a stage filled with dusty-rose curtains and it will instantly remind you of a retro big band scene. Manifesto doesn’t settle for less!

Wrinkle-free velvet drapes

A whopping 700 square meters of custom-dyed velvet drapes set the tone during this energetic performance. The curtains create a visually stunning wall of pink all around the percussionists, emphasized or toned down by the stage lights. Set design goals!

And why not take the whole thing on tour? No big deal for the all-around Velours Delta, which is very well-suited for touring shows. Deep mat, wrinkle-resistant, inherently flame retardant, you name it. The extra-wide synthetic velvet can even improve the acoustics of your venue as well.
