After watching the clips in the "Parts of a Theater" page explaining the layout of a stage floor, the layout of the US/DS/SR/SL/CS/CSR/CSL/USL/USR grid, the expected use of each of those areas for story telling and the different types of theater design, watch the below clips of scenes from live plays.

Then answer any or all of the below questions for one of the clips/scenes: (these questions are jumping off points. If you'd like to focus on another aspect of the staging, please feel free.)

• - Did the director adhere to the grid?
• - Did the actors use the stage to their advantage?
• - Did the actors stand where you expected them to stand in order to tell their story? 
• - Were you surprised by any of the choices, either from the actor or the director?
• - Would you have done something different?
