Do I use Actor or Audience perspective in Set Designs?
The stage is broken into different parts circulating around- center, right, left, downstage, upstage, etc. House of Left and House of Right refer to the perspectives of the audiences, yet Stage Left and Stage Right refer the the actors perspectives on stage.
I have to draw four set designs on A4 paper for each act of the play The Crucible, thus I have had difficulty deciphering which side is left and which side is right on the set design based on not knowing whether I use House Left/Right or Stage Left/Right.
For example one description of the act includes the placement of the window- “There is a narrow window at the left. Through its leaded panes the morning sunlight streams, a candles burns near the bed, which is at the right.” Do I put the window on the left of the audience or the actors? Do I put the bed on the right of the audience or the actors?- All based on the creation of a set design.
Thanks.
Unless it is specifically specified, all stage directions written in the script are true stage directions (from the actor’s perspective).
So if it says Left, it means Stage Left, from the actor’s perspective (House Right).
