In the play, A Raisin in the Sun, what should be included in the diagram of the stage besides the two bedroom doors, the window, Travis' bed, the table and chairs, and the couch?

Also, I don't know where to put the door that leads into and out of the apartment. Any ideas?
One more thing. In the book, it says Mama and Bennie's bedroom door is "at left". Walter and Ruth's is opposite-"at right". I am confused as to where to label these two doors on the diagram. This is the diagram:
UP STAGE

STAGE RIGHT STAGE LEFT

DOWN STAGE
AUDIENCE

(Which door goes on Stage Right, and which on Stage Left?)
Thanks.

Thank you for using the Jiskha Homework Help Forum. To see the parts of a stage, download the following pdf file:

Thank you very much, but I already know the parts of the stage. The diagram given labeled them for me. My job is to fill in all the...parts, you could call them. Like the doors, the table, the couch, etc. I was wondering if I was missing anything. Above, I also asked two other questions regarding where the three doors belong on the diagram of the stage. I typed the diagram of the stage (if you'll notice above) which is what you gave me. The diagram I typed above included the EXACT SAME parts- the up stage, down stage, etc.- that you gave me, which I don't need. You must have misunderstood my question, bbut just to clear things up, I'm not looking for the parts of the stage.

This is the site of the set design that I gave you previously.

Thank you for everything, but nothing seems to be helping. I think I just need to make myself clearer. This is my assignment:

~Begin reading the play (A Raisin in the Sun) and draw and label a diagram of the stage for yourself.~
Beneath, this is the diagram provided:
Up Stage

Stage Right Stage Left

Down Stage
(Audience)

That given diagram takes up the whole page. My job is to DRAW and LABEL everything where it goes, whether up stage, down stage, right or left stage.

I have DRAWN two bedroom doors, but in order to LABEL them, I need to find out who they belong to. In the book, it says Mama and Bennie's bedroom door is "at left". Walter and Ruth's is opposite-"at right". I am confused as to which door is whose. Should Mama and Bennie's bedroom("at left") be labeled as the door that's on stage right or left? Same for Ruth and Walter's.

Also, there's a third door which leads into and out of the apartment. I've looked at what you've given me, but I don't see it. Where should I draw this door?(up stage, down stage, stage right, or stage left?) (I've ruled out down stage, which is right in front of the audience).

One more thing. What else should be drawn in the diagram of the stage besides the three doors, the window, Travis' bed, the table and chairs, and the couch?

Did you look at this site????

There is a picture of the stage set and a diagram that is labeled.
Looking at the stage... your right hand is stage right. Your left hand is stage left.

Yes, I have looked at those pictures, but my computer does not let me see the one that looks drawn (the labeled diagram)

In the diagram for the stage of "A Raisin in the Sun," besides the mentioned elements, there are a few additional details that you can include to enhance the accuracy and completeness of the set design. These may vary depending on the specific production and director's vision, but some commonly included elements are:

1. The kitchen area: Typically, there would be a section of the stage dedicated to representing the kitchen. This can be indicated by a counter, sink, stove, or any other props that suggest a kitchen space.

2. The dining area: Near the table and chairs, you can include a dining area, such as a sideboard or a buffet table. This helps to establish the space as a central gathering point for meals.

3. Props and furniture: Think about other pieces of furniture or props that are mentioned in the play but not explicitly included in your initial list. For example, if there is a telephone mentioned, you can consider including a telephone stand or desk.

Regarding the door that leads into and out of the apartment, it can be placed on either Stage Left or Stage Right, depending on the director's interpretation and the flow of the play. Both options are valid, so you have the flexibility to choose which side suits your vision and practical constraints better.

To label the two bedroom doors, the text "at left" and "at right" refer to the perspective of someone standing on the stage facing the audience. Therefore, with your diagram orientation, Mama and Bennie's bedroom door should be placed on Stage Left, and Walter and Ruth's bedroom door should be placed on Stage Right.

Remember, these suggestions are not set in stone and can be adjusted based on the production's concept and the director's vision. If possible, consult with the director or production team to ensure that your diagram aligns with their intentions.
