THEATRE DESIGN

                                        THEATRE DESIGN



As an art form, theatre does not require a purposefully or specially designed building in which to be presented. But when audiences gather regularly to experience a performance, attempts are made to organise the space so that the audience can have a better experience. The simplest ones are where there is a cleared ground and audience can stand or sit to view a performance or play.

Traditonally a movie theatre like stage theatre, consists of a single auditorium with rows of comfortable seats and a area containing a box office for buying tickets. Movie theatres also have a same stage, seats and box office. But additionally it also have a concession area for buying a popcorn, drinks and other snacks. The area is confined within the theatre's lobby. Others features included are film posters, arcade games and washrooms. Stage theatres can be converted to movie theatres by placing a screen in front of the stage and adding a projector. Such conversions may be temporary or permanent. Many of these early theatres contain a balcony, an elevated level across the auditorium above the theatre's rearmost seats. Stadium seating which is popular in modern multiplexes have sharply raked rows of seats extending from in front of the screen back towards the ceiling. It gives audience a clear sight line over the heads of those seated i front of them. Rows of seats are divided by one or more aisles so that there are seldom more than 20 seats in a row. This gives a advantage of easier access to seating, as the space between rows is very narrow. Some theatres usually have booster seats for children and short people for better view.
Some luxury screens are: 1. Multiplexes and megaplexes: It is the one where there are multiple auditoriums and movie screens. It was first started in Canada.

2. Drive-in : This type of theatre is an outdoor parking area with a screen. Movie goers drive into the parking spaces. Movies are usually viewed through the car windscreen or some people sit on the top of the car and watch.

3. Other venues: some outdoor movie theatres are just grassy area where the audience sits upon chairs or blankets and watch the movie on a temporary screens.

MY FAVORITE- OLD MOVIES  It might be surprising, but I would confidently say that I love old movies than the new movies releasing now a days.  To be specific, I love the movies of the 1980's and 90's. It is my personal opinion to call the movies of those times the best of all the movies I have seen. Movies like, 'Kuch kuch hota hai',' Mouna raagam', 'Punagai mannan' are few of my favorites from that time. I believe, those movies had a unique charm and graze that could easily attract the audience to watch them. The movies had very good stories in them and I am in particular, a fan of the songs of the movies. There are hundreds of songs that I remember with amazing lyrics, tune, and picturizations.  It was surely because of my mother that I experienced these visual treats.I watched most of the old movies during the 10th and 12th board examination study holidays ! Our school used to give the whole of February as study holidays and I used to watch ...
