Proscenium

I will be writing a play review of West Side Story. The lyricist Stephen Sondheim born in New York on 22nd March 1930, was inspired to write West side story based on William Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet. The play is targeted to an audience of aged 15 and above as it has mature and complicated themes to understand, however if you do understand it then it is a good play to watch. 25-35 year olds will enjoy it the most as it is based on relationships and it is perhaps more appealing to the…

Love, Laughs, and Deception On November 19, 2015 at 8 o’clock in the evening I attended the play Much Ado About Nothing, inside of the Little Theatre at San Francisco State University (SFSU). I was able to purchase tickets online through a link from my theatre professor, there was a discounted student fee, which was $10 per ticket. I bought two tickets which was a total of $20, because my mom attended the play with me. We sat in the center of the theatre in row E, seat 110 and 111, it was…

by Mark Haddon. It was adapted into a play by Simon Stephens and is currently being shown at the Gielgud Theatre in London. The first thing I noticed when entering the Gielgud Theatre was how big it was. The stage itself was very large, and was a proscenium arch, meaning that the audience faces the stage straight-on.

I will; I Seek was performed and choreographed by Mariana Orozco Arango, who costumed the work herself and collaborated with three musicians, and a lighting designer, to help create her piece. All aspects are crucial in understand, analyzing, and interpreting Arango’s work. Throughout her solo, Arango passionately, chaotically, and desperately seems to search for something as she frantically propels herself through space. Specifically, the intimate size of the flexible stage and black box…

Hobart Repertory Theatre’s theatrical production of The Elephant Man (by playwright Bernard Pomerance) was a dramatic play shown at the Playhouse Theatre on a traditional proscenium stage. Petr Divis revived the true story of Joseph Merrick, (referred to as John Merrick and played by Jon Lenthall) and joined hands with his performers to display a stellar feat of acting to the public. The idiom “Don’t judge a book by its cover “could hardly be more strikingly epitomised than in the revelation of…

mid show, multiple times, rather than just use one color for the duration of the show. Soon after Fuller, Stanley McCandless published his Glossary of Stage Lighting. His method of lighting was designed to “provide uniform illumination across a proscenium stage in such a way as to render actors ' features naturally and without distortion or distracting shadows” (Essig). In his method, many lights were aimed at the stage as to…

On the 18th of September 2014, I went to watch the adapted theatre production of “Private Peaceful” at the Queens theatre, Barnstable. The production that was originally a novel written by Michael Morpurgo but Simon Reade adapted and directed the theatre production. The theatre company was called: Fiery Angel and scamp theatre; the actor for the solo role of ‘Tommo’ and 21 other roles, was characterized by Andy Daniel. He did an exceptionally good job and skilfully brought all the characters to…
