TYPE OF STAGE

The best type of stage is a blackbox because the audience will be able to see the actors facial expression better and since there is not a major scene change, they will be able to connect with the characters better.

ACT I

LOCATION

The play starts off inside of a Frank, Maria, and

Jonathan’s summer house

Their house is surrounded by snow and trees

INSIDE THE HOUSE

Majority of the things in the house are covered in snow.

Even though everything is covered in snow, it is suppose to provide a peaceful mind.

PROPS

The suitcase, skis, and snow boots that showed up in play, explains that everyone was trying to enjoy their vacation and have a good time.

ACT II

COLOR BLACK SETS THE MOOD

Following Maria’s death, the

whole house is covered in black

drapes along with black covers

indicating that everyone is

mourning her death.

Having everything in black

indicates that they are sad that

she is no longer with everyone.

SINGING AT THE TABLE

When they all sang

together, it shows that

they are mending their

relationship.

The table will have a little

snack to show that they

were sitting there and

talking about old times.

ENDING SCENE

One of the most

important scene is at the

end, where Frank ends

up alone with his head in

his hands.

This shows that at the

end Frank ends up being

alone.

It also create a sad

mood.
