Cleaning up and Leaving No Trace are paramount. As citizens of Black Rock City we are held to a higher standard. We will publish new and more detailed cleanup and burn scar guidelines later in the year. At The bottom of the information you will be directed to the Pyrotechnic Questionnaire. Safely Fire is an incredible performance medium to incorporate into a performance.
Fire has so many deep meanings and fears attached to it.
However, fire is also a potentially dangerous medium that can very quickly lead to serious injury, property loss and death. We cannot emphasize enough that being a patient at a burn ward in a trauma center is possibly the most miserable place to be stuck in this side of a torture chamber. People with extensive burns are in severe pain and can remain that way for years. Skin grafts can hurt as much as the original burn and limbs do not grow back. This information sheet is designed to promote the safe use of pyrotechnics and flame, both onstage and off.
