Back side of a tableau curtain - Grand théâtre d'Angers The tableau, tab, or tabbed curtain, also called opera drapes, though iconic of the theater setting, is the rarest of curtains to actually be employed on the stage. It consists of two overlapping panels (often but not always pleated) firmly secured at the top to a batten, each sewn with a diagonal series of rings from the upper offstage corner to either the centre-point of or the onstage-most corner of its lower edge. A line or cable attaches to the lowest ring, runs diagonally offstage through the other rings, through a pulleys on the batten, then down to the floor. When the lines are pulled, each curtain is lifted diagonally out and off.
