[SML] Cleaning the audience space

[Steven Hood]

The housekeeping staff at my school uses the same tactic as you do, except 
they'll sometimes use a backpack style vacuum in the risers, instead of the 
broom. Our seats are mounted on rails at the back of each row, so the floor 
space is easily reached with the vac.

I am active with a local theater group that performs in in a muli-use 
space.  For shows, we have carpeted platforms that are used for risers.  We 
sell popcorn and other snacks, and need to clean our risers of the debris 
between shows.

Currently the approach is to use a broom to sweep the popcorn from under 
the seat to the space in front of the seats, where we will use a vacuum.

I know that some spaces use blowers to blow debris from the top of the 
seating, down towards towards the very front of the space, where it gets 
vacuumed.  But, in our case, I suspect a lot of popcorn will end up going 
under the risers.  And we store a lot of stuff under those risers.

Are there any other approaches to cleaning that we should consider?
