Shortly I may be asked to build a semi/permanent theatrical stage inside
a
church.

I would suggest you post your question to rec.arts.theatre.stagecraft, or
RATS.
They handle a number of similar inquiries and can give you practical
advice
from a theatrical perspective, which is often surprisingly different from
an
everyday perspective.

Hope this helps,

John



I was going to do both so as to get different views.
