Proscenium stage

Originated in Italy during the Renaissance, its structural characteristics are like the outer frame of a painting, and after the end of the 19th century, the frame stage is one of the main forms of stage in the world.

Generally refers to the front of the performance area using a frame of the stage. Its purpose is to distinguish the performance area from the auditorium,

Keep the perspective of the stage realistic.

The modern frame stage is mostly rectangular, and the curtain is used as a decoration to shield the side stage area on both sides of the stage for actors and technicians to prepare for work.

Thrust stage

Extended stage existed as early as in ancient Greek theater, its function is to enhance the relationship between the audience and the actors, give the stage performance more hypothetical, but also let the audience have better audiovisual conditions.

 

A modern protuberant stage is a stage that extends into the middle of the auditorium. A stage form in which the audience is surrounded by the front , right and left sides.

 

Thrust stage

 

Center stage

This type of stage is located in the center of the auditorium, and the audience faces from all sides. The audience is close to the action, which provides a sense of intimacy and engagement.

Center stage

 

Black box stage

The Black Box Theatre is a simple and unadorned performance space, ideally a square room with black walls and floors that can be flexibly used to create a stage and audience area.

If you can find the right space, you can improvise the stage. This may include performing in non-traditional Spaces (such as the basement of a building, the side of a hillside) or on the street. In a similar way, a temporary stage can be created by modifying the environment.
