Short answer: Angle.
Let us assume we are illuminating a human on a theater stage.
Front lighting are the fixtures that point to the front side of the human when they are standing towards the audience.
Back lighting is the opposite. That means the light fixtures which are pointing to the back of the human.
Cross lighting is when two, or more, lighting fixtures point at the human from varying places. For example, if there's both, front light and back light, those can be considered as cross lighting. Also, to illuminate the front side of a human completely, you usually need at least two lighting fixtures for that, one slightly to the left and one slightly to the right side of the human. This is also called cross lighting.
Down lighting is light coming from up (ceiling) and going down. This is as opposed to up lighting, which is when a light fixture is on the floor, pointing upwards. Generally, most of theatrical lighting comes from up, thus being down lighting, but for a special effect, down lighting can be used too.

What is Front of House clearance?
In terms of theatre performances, Front of House clearance is the instruction - or rather the advice - given by the front of house staff to stage management. The call can be made in several ways: an indicator light going on or off, a bell signal, or, most usually, a telephone call or walkie-talkie communication. It informs the stage management staff that the audience have entered and have taken their seats in the auditorium. Any doors or curtains at the entrances to the auditorium need to be closed or be closing at the time the clearance call is made. Once stage management have received the call from front of house, they can effectively start the show. Usually, there will be a delay of a couple of minutes from front of house closing to the show starting, as lighting and sound operators will need to be informed of their first cues, and stage management will need to ensure that cast and crew are ready to begin. For a normal show, front of house staff will make two calls; one at the start of the show, and another at the start of Act Two, after the interval.
