What is cheating out in theater?

Cheating out is a theatre term that refers to an actor turning their body towards the audience so they can see the action. For example, if you were having a face-to-face conversation with a fellow actor and you were both facing the side walls of the theatre, the director would ask you to cheat out so the audience could see you face. It is often an unnatural process.


What does it mean when an actor is blocking the audiences view of the other actor?

To block the audience's view of an actor means that one actor (or actors) literally block, or are in front or to the side of another actor so that the audience cannot see this actor. Actors can also be blocked by stage props or furniture. For example, in ill-placed lamp and table can "block" an actor sitting in a chair.

What is the difference between a proscenium stage and a thrust stage?

A proscenium stage is where the actor faces the whole audience on the front (downstage) of the stage. A thrust stage is where the actor is surrounded on 3 sides by the audience. Think of a proscenium stage as the people coming to the front to see the actor whereas the thrust stage is where the stage comes out into the audience.


What does upstage mean?

There are two meanings of the word. Early stages were tilted a little to give everyone a better view, before some bright mind got the idea to tilt the house instead. The side furthest from the audience was a little higher. That's why the front of the stage is "downstage" and the back of the stage is "upstage." The other use of the word refers to some action on the stage stealing the focus from another actor. This term literally derives from one actor "upstaging" another, that is, being upstage from them. The upstage actor can naturally face the audience while speaking to the downstage actor; the downstage actor must either reply without facing the upstage actor (which usually looks unnatural) or turn his back to the audience (a weaker position, since the audience can no longer see his face).
