Specialized Vocabulary (Theatre)
Mar. 25th, 2006 10:06 amHello,
I am looking for specialized vocabulary for working in theatre. For instance, what are the equivilants to:
"upstage"
"downstage"
"stage right"
"stage left"
"cross"
"enter"
"exit"
"counter"
"line, please!"
"the flies"
"the turntable"
"the grid"
"table-work"
"onstage"
"offstage"
"strike that chair"
"spike that chair"
"step unit"
"level"
Those are terms just off the top of my head - is there anyone here who is involved in theatre who would like to discuss terminology with me?
