THE THEATRE
You should probably think about taking some notes.
You never know when a test might come on this stuff, and you
would want to know the information.
Well it’s up to you…I’m not going to make you take
notes.
“The Space”
THE THEATRE
TYPES OF THEATRE’S
Theatre-in-the-round
STAGE
Actors perform in full view from all angles. Minimal scenery and
limited space leave the audience to create with their imagination.
STAGETheatre-quarter
theaterOften an awkward arrangement because actors cannot use the
front of the stage without alienating portions of the
audience. Similar consequences as theatre-in-the-round.
TYPES OF THEATRE’S
Two-sided theatre
STAGE
Very few of these types of theatre’s still exist. This runway-like stage is used for combat and minimalist shows. All entrances
and exits must be from the same side.
STAGE
End stage theatreThis one of the most common spaces. It creates a box-like
impression in which the actors are separated from the audience
by the proscenium. There is plenty of room to hide the sets
and costumes backstage.
TYPES OF THEATRE’S
Thrust stage theatreThis is another common
arrangement for a theatre space. It, just like the end stage theatre,
provides plenty of room backstage. However it, unlike the end stage, provides the actor the opportunity to get close up to the
audience.PITLOCKRY HALLThis is La Habra High School’s
space. It was designed to be used as a Lecture Hall, not as a theatre, and that creates some interesting
problems for a theatre performance. But it is a unique
combination of an end-stage and a thrust stage, with no seats on the
side
