It's for draping the stage. Ceiling to floor and in layers. Should also be sheer, as we'll be projecting light through it in addition to onto it. Theatrical sheers at that width are $89.99 according to one website passed along, so maybe it's not so bad a price for the width.

We'll need a LOT so it probably needs to be the wider variety, or we'll be sewing 100's of yards together.

What is the theatrical use you envision for this muslin?
Most muslin for general theater use can be found for about $1 a yard if you
shop around.  If you are needing it for flats(scene) of unusual
width(72"/109"), the price you mention may not be too bad. For misc. costume
use, you can find it for a much cheaper price!!

Can anyone tell me if purchasing a 15 yard bolt of muslin for $69 is a good
deal?  It's for theatrical purposes, and we may need a total of 100 plus
yards, fairly lightweight transparent muslin.

Any help on sourcing appreciated.
