Best Answer

A "Unit Set" is used in most theater competitions. It is standardized group of risers, ramps, pedestals, etc., that will be available at a contest site. Each group performing may arrange the set pieces any way they desire, but requiring the Unit Set not only places each group on an equal footing (wealthier schools can't bring a dazzling set), but also assesses creativity in how the set pieces are used. It is suggested that each group build their own Unit Set for home rehearsals. Standardized pieces and dimensions should be published in the Region's/State's contest rules. (In Texas it is in the published "UIL C & CR").
