Add mention that a single rope can be used, as mentioned by Alchymist in a comment

Aug 3, 2016 at 13:45 comment added Alchymist I have worked backstage at theatres and this is the approach used for backdrops also. The only difference being that the bottom pulleys are replaced by spooling the rope round the bar instead, allowing it to roll up/unroll the backcloth. You only need a single rope, however, rather than tying two together at the wall.
