Elements of Theatre Production

Designing a Theatrical Production

The design of the set, lighting, music, sound and costumes all greatly contribute to the audience’s experience. There are a range of roles within theatre design.

The Theatrical design has a huge impact on an audience’s experience. It is the first thing they see when the stage is revealed to them or when they enter the house.
The design should provide essential information including setting, time period and the type of production you’re seeing.
It’s very important to consider the type of stage and space available when deciding on set design, (Thrust, arena, proscenium, black box).
