Best Answer

It depends on what time period you are talking about. When Shakespeare was acting, they had no scenery to speak of--only some large stage props like beds and thrones. Large set pieces would not have worked with the stages they had. In the Victorian era, the sets were huge and elaborate, and audiences expected to have to wait a long time while the stagehands changed them. In this period, the set designer got better billing than the actors.
