2. In a professional stage production, this is a
person who take the play from a mere
concept to an actual finished presentation.
He or she also decides on major logistical
matters like when and where the play be
stage, the production schedule, and in most
cases either finances all the production costs
or else sources the fund needed.
3. The director is overall artistic coordinator of the
entire production. Like a conductor of an orchestra,
he or she has a vision of the desired total effect an
impact of the performance.
With the play’s script serving as a “musical score,”
The director ensures that each one in the
production or she has a vision of the desired the
director ensures that one in the production “hits all
the right notes” to create a cohesive, seamless
performance will engage the audience.
4. The initial concept or plot may be
original, and then developed into a
play script. Or it may be based on an
existing story or another play which
the playwright will then adapt to
present in a new way.
5. The concept and creation of the physical stage setup is the
task of the set designer.
The set may be realistic and filled with authentic details,
or it may be minimalist, merely suggesting the setting
with a few pieces of furniture or props and a simple
backdrop. In either case, the set designer ensures that the
set will enable the actors to move about easily and
naturally to make their roles believable, and will truly
provide the ambience on stage that the director and the
playwright intend
6. Coordinating closely with the set designer in the
lighting designer Lighting is critical in creating the
mood of each scene in the play, highlighting a
dramatic mоment signalling the entrance of a
character, focusing attention on a specific spot on
stage, providing the blanket of darkness for set and
prop changes Colored lights or filters may be used,
as well as special effects such as gradual dimming
or brightening, a speckled effect like sunlight
through leaves, or flickering lights.
7. The actors and actresses must look believable in
their roles, and much of this is owed to the costume
designer. He or she studies the general setting
(time and place) that the play is meant to take
place in, as well as each character in the script. He
or she then decides what attire will not only give
the audience a clear sense of the setting, but will
also express each character's personality and
distinct qualities.
8. Similar to the lighting designer, the sound designer
serves a vital role in creating and enhancing the
atmosphere of the performance. Sound, in this
case, includes music both on stage and as
background, which the sound designer may need to
source to suit the general time and place of the
play, as well as particular scenes. Also involved are
special sound effects like thunder, birds chirping,
rushing water, gunfire, passing cars, approaching
footsteps, and the like.
9. Coordinating all the complex behind-the-scenes
details of staging a play is the production manager.
This includes ensuring that all the needed
elements, facilities, and equipment are not only
available, but are in good working order.
10. The technical director shadows the play's director
throughout the entire production process. From the
time the director presents his or her vision for the
play and issues instructions at every rehearsal, the
technical director carefully notes how each actor
and every member of the stage, sound, lighting,
and costume crews need to be coordinated to bring
the director's vision to life-ensuring that every
instruction is properly executed.
11. In cases where a play involves dance in certain
scenes, a choreographer is uncluded in the
production team He or she not only plans out all
the dance steps to suit the music, but also
rehearses the actors until they are able to perform
the dance skillfully while remaining in character
on stage Should the play happen to involve fight
scenes, the choreographer will likewise program
the moves of the opposing sides so these can be
executed not only believably, but safely as well.
12. As the costume designer deliberates on the characters'
main attire, the makeup designer is brought in to plan the
hairstyles and makeup to complement the costumes The
work of the makeup designer may be as simple as making
the actors look natural for their respective roles-based on
they characters' age and personality, and the time and
place of the story.
But it may also be far more challenging, such as
transforming the actors into mythical creatures, animals,
a different nationality, or futuristic beings
