Description
Our backstage tour begins in the wings, stage left. In theater parlance stage left is the left side of the stage for an actor facing the audience. Downstage is towards the audience, upstage is back farther from the audience. The wings are spaces on either side of the part of the stage visible to the audience. There can be a lot going on here during a performance but it happens very quietly so the audience doesn’t hear it, like whispered directions, “Ready to open the door?”
From our position in the wings we have a perspective on the scenery quite different from what an audience sees. This play all takes place in a single room with lots of doors, just what you expect in a comic farce. So the scenery stays in place for the entire play. Here we see how scenery is put together and held up.
Terell is explaining. “It is pretty solid, but even so, actors have got to be reminded not to slam the doors, or the walls are gonna shake no matter how I build them..”

I belonged to the drama club a long time ago when I was in college and did backstage stuff including some stage lighting. It will be useful to know stage layout when things start happening here later on in the story.
