BLOC KING What is it? Why do we need it?
BLOCKING v. Blocking refers to the pre-planned movement on the stage. v. Much like choreography is pre-planned dance moves, blocking is pre-planned walking, running, sitting, standing, etc. v. But…. how do directors plan out the blocking? Well, they use stage directions.
STAGE DIRECTIONS v. Much like we use North, South, East and West to give directions, Director’s give their actors specific stage directions to tell them where to go on the stage. v. Actors learn the various “blocks” of the stage and must learn to move to those areas when directed to do so. v. There are 9 blocks of the stage
DOWNSTAGE v. Downstage is the area closest to the audience v. Why is it called “downstage”?
BELL WORK Can you name all 9 blocks of the stage?
UPSTAGE v. Upstage is the area near the back of the stage. This is the opposite of downstage. v. When you’re walking upstage, you’re walking away from the audience.
STAGE RIGHT / STAGE LEFT v. Stage right and left are defined by the actor’s viewpoint, NOT the audience. v. If an actor is onstage and the director tells him to move stage right, the actor will move to his right. Stage left Stage right
HOUSE RIGHT / LEFT HTTP: //DICTIONARY. TDF. ORG/STAGE-LEFT-STAGE-RIGHT-HOUSE-LEFT-HOUSE-RIGHT/ v. House right and left refer to the audience’s viewpoint…which is often where the director is sitting during rehearsals. House left House right
CROSSING ON THE STAGE When a director wants an actor to move from one part of the stage to another…they will use the term “cross”. “I want you to cross stage right” left” “Cross downstage
WHY DO WE CALL IT “CROSSI NG”?
