Parts Of The Stage

- STAGE LEFT… everything to your LEFT is STAGE LEFT.
- STAGE RIGHT… everything to your RIGHT is STAGE RIGHT.
- UPSTAGE… everything BEHIND you is UPSTAGE.
- DOWNSTAGE… everything INFRONT of you is DOWNSTAGE.
- WINGS… The wings are the areas at the side of the stage where you wait to come onto the stage. If you are in the wings, the audience should not be able to see you. An easy way to check this is that if you can see the audience, then they can see you!
- TABS… Tabs are the names of the curtains at a theatre. There may be a set of tabs that open at the beginning of the show to reveal the stage to the audience, or maybe a tab that comes in that you act in front of while the scenery is changed behind you. You must never touch the tabs, and if you have to wait behind them for them to open you must stand completely still and in silence or the audience will hear every noise you make!
