ОБ ЭТОМ ЭПИЗОДЕ
Most theater-goers are familiar with black boxes. We’re not talking about literal boxes that are black but in a way it’s not totally off the mark. Walking inside a black box theater, it’s pretty bare and minimal – empty space, a place for an audience to sit, and maybe a few studio lights for dramatic lighting. These spaces may not have that grand sparkling feeling when you walk into a 200+ capacity, red curtain adorned proscenium, but it serves very much the same purpose: possibility in creativity.
In this location scout round table discussion we’ll be spotlighting a few films that take place in these spaces. The set may not exhibit a lot of pizazz and visual stimulation, but the concepts present big ideas that add to the narrative. Here we learn that black box theaters are meant to host possibilities, fill in the holes with imagination, and let the performance do the talking.
