This type of stage is know as proscenium arch stage found first in ancient Rome. In proscenium theater the stage is border by a large proscenium arch, which is most times has extricate designs and are beautiful . The audience faces the stage, which is usually several feet taller than the audience, this allows them to see the stage better than if it were at ground level. Stage and set designers create backgrounds on cut cloths, back cloths, ground row, and props that mimic what the scene would look like if were actually occurring. At home this is the type of theater I attend at the Chrysler Hall in Norfolk, Va. I have seen many plays and musicals there including Lion King and Wicked. In New York I have seen on Broadway productions in proscenium theaters including Phantom of the Opera and Mamma Mia!
