Asbestos curtains ordered for Atlanta theaters Grand Bijou
Jaka Wells of the Wells circuit ordered asbestos fire curtains for the Grand and the Bijou in Atlanta along with one for HOL DeGive in New York. The curtains will hang before the regular curtains to trap sparks, with measurements coordinated by George Hickwan and Cardoza Vir Wells’ Atlanta representative. The aim is safer egress in fires as Chief Joyner had urged, before any city ordinance.
