The Production Of The Theater

Shakespeare is well known for using stage managers to shape audience understanding or responses. As a playwright during the English Renaissance period, Shakespeare draws on literature models from two cultures Greek and medieval English plays. One example of Shakespeare’s use of these models is evident by examining the stage manager character type in Greek, English Medieval, and English Renaissance literary periods. Shakespeare appears to use the commentary quality of Greek chorus and the medieval English use of a single stage manager character to produce more sophisticated stage managers that integrate smoothly into plays but still shape audience understanding or response.

Have you ever wondered what it would it feel like to walk inside and see the beautiful architect in the Globe Theatre? The significance of the Globe theatre is that play rights change how they portrayed the stories to the audience. The Globe Theatres were popular in Shakespearian time and Shakespeare’s plays still occur there every day.

On February 26th 2016, I went out with my friend to saw this event. It was the first time of my life to be in such production. I was not a fan of theaters. I thought they are boring. Now, my mind has changed because the play was amazing. So, on the next day,

   William Shakespeare is considered the greatest playwright of all time.  His gift for developing characters is one major aspect that accounts for this lofty acknowledgement.  Shakespeare created various characters from drunks and fools to kings and generals.  The characters are so human and so real that the audience can see aspects of their own personalities represented on stage for better or worse.  Inadvertently, Shakespeare's ability to characterize any type of person demonstrates his holistic education and knowledge of everything from military strategy and open sea sailing to music and religion.  As a result of Shakespeare's true-to-life

Watching the play to kill a Mockingbird was a wonderful production that captures the audience attention. A playwright is a person who writes plays for that stage and also they create scripts that tell stories through the words and action of characters. Most of the playwright’s people work alone and some of the time they share the work of creating script with the actors and directors.

The Globe Theatre became what it is today because of its history. What was its history exactly? Unfortunately, those are two questions many people don’t have an answer to. So, what is the history?

For decades people found theatre one of the most enjoyable form of entertainment all across the world. With every play comes a cost. A value which somebody's story is told. Obviously it can be comic drama or despairing,. Each second of these plays are genuinely delightful and exceptional. Where the performing artists show a totally distinctive side of characters to the group of onlookers where they demonstrate to them something new and pleasurable. And behind the theatre and its plays is one person who keeps it all in check and that is the director. The director is like the heart of a person. You don’t see the heart but you know if it’s doing its job correctly

The Stage Manager inspires everyone by taking different roles in the play. Our Town is the Stage Manager’s show and he is running it. He tries to show us that life is short so we must enjoy every moment, even the mundane ones. The Stage Manager isn’t some objective scientific observer making notes on a clipboard. He’s organizing the whole play, and that’s an important distinction.

In the 1980s, the cost of staging a Broadway show soared so high that major shows have to run for more than two years to break even (showtime, 604). The strong-willed individualistic producers were replaced by “artistic director, a general manager and various multi-producers.(showtime 604)” The latter were made up by businessman and theater owners whose priority is to sell tickets rather than create art. What’s more, the producers were less willing to take risks both financially and artistically, which made Broadway productions bleaker(showtime 604). As for the production of Rent and The Phantom of the Opera, the producers used different tactics to cope with the staggering cost. The rent cut cost on stage setting and location.They abandoned the expensive curtains and fancy settings and used sculptures of “junk, wire and Christmas-tree lights” to symbolize different sites(Wollman, 170).

This theater was important for all; it was the first time that all these people see an offer on real acting theater. It was important because their job was to keep people

To start, one of the many things that stood out to me was The Lady who was mysteriously present in every scene. Without lines until the very end of the performance, it was like she was watching and learning from the play simultaneously with audience. Initially, I couldn’t pinpoint the importance of her role in the production, yet along with

A director will decide where and when actors move -- a term known as "blocking"-- to ensure the proper dramatic effect and to work with the lighting design of the scene. Where the actors are moved in one scene will usually correspond with how they will be placed in the next scene, unless there is a stage clearing in between scenes. The director becomes the "eye of the audience" during rehearsals. He makes sure that an important character is not being hidden behind another actor and ensures the audience can hear everything. There are a few tricks a director can make to emphasize certain moments and characters during a play. If a character is sectioned off from a crowd or standing on a prop higher than the rest of the cast the spectators

In an interview with Belvoir Street Theatre in 2012 he quotes; “I found a deep sense of place (at once concrete and metaphoric), and silence as an invisible substance – the structuring principle which underpins all utterances”. Andrews feels these artists teach lessons about life and help him explore the depths of theatre as an art form. He is only interested in working on ‘great plays with great actors’ as he states in the same interview. Barry Kosky is a very influential director who is interested in adapting to the way he views a play, in 2000 at the National Circus Conference at the Powerhouse, he stated “I'm not interested in the likes and dislikes of the audience. I'm interested in my likes and dislikes…I need an audience, but I need an audience that want to come on my ride, not the other way around. I think a lot of people in this country are led by the notion that the audience is somehow indicative of the work that should be done.” For Kosky especially, the directorial strategies are very present and can sometimes change the story from the way the writers intended. He is very present within his works but that is his choice, it is not a mistake, instead of using the actors as characters he tends to use them as props, and instead of using the writers to produce scripts, he uses the scripts as more

Drama is absolute and unique for it is separate from everything outside itself and it is constructed by dialogue, which is dominant. The author cannot appear anywhere in drama – referred to what is spoken – but it belongs to him just as a whole and everything spoken cannot be out of context. Also, the absoluteness of this artistic

Whereas William Shakespeare was not only an author but also an actor, he knew exactly how to combine the art of writing and the art of acting. Especially his tragedy Hamlet fascinated the audience over centuries and still does today. One of the reasons for the huge success of this play are the metatheatrical aspects that Shakespeare uses within the story. To break the illusion of reality that a stage play wants to create, Shakespeare makes the theatre itself to an important theme, operates with the concept of a play within a play, and connects so the two important level of communication.
