The stage is the main performance area and is divided into sections like upstage, downstage, stage left, and stage right to help choreograph actor movement. Key stage components include the proscenium, wings, safety curtain, and red curtain. The house refers to the audience seating areas like the orchestra pit, auditorium, balconies, and vomitorium. The control booth oversees technical equipment. Backstage areas that support performances include dressing rooms where actors prepare, the green room where performers wait, catwalks for lighting/sound control, and storage shops for sets and costumes.
