A production can appeal to our senses through theatrical communication: Include the 4 below
1. Language – act as an entire stimulant of our senses; we imagine what the playwright
tells us ought to be there
2. See – a sword fight performed with fast action, swift movements, and great intensity
and sets us on the edge of our seat
3. Movements – by the actors (bodily & vocally) – push us emotionally
4. Mood – use of colors for example help communicate the mood of the play through
rhythm and variation in the visual elements TURN OVER
SENSE STIMULI (continued)
Lighting designer’s illumination of actors and set causes us to respond in many ways.
Play’s audience reacts to the mass of a setting – for example: scenery that towers over the actors
and appears heavy differs in effect from scenery that seems minuscule or light
Focus and line work upon our senses – careful composition can create sharp movement, outlines,
and shadows or it can create soft, or blurred images
