Read the following scenario: A theatrical production is in development at a small children's theater. This production is a musical version of "Little Red
Riding Hood." The director wants to construct one main set for all of the scenes to minimize scene change time. The two
main places of action are the forest and the interior of the grandmother's house.
Which of the following might a set designer do to meet the
needs of this production?
A Create two backdrops, one with an image of a forest and the other with an image of a house that can be dropped when the scene
changes.
B Instead of building a set, use props to set the scene.
C Use a pulley system to lower a house onto the stage during the scene change,
D Construct a set piece that looks like a large forest tree on one side and the interior of a small cottage on the other, and then use a
turnstile to turn the set plece during the scene change.
