According to the most inexperienced lovers, the best place in the auditorium located on the ground. Actually it all depends on what brought the fan art in the theatre today. Besides, to get to the most expensive places neobyazatelno to buy tickets in the stalls. What is it and why is popular now that will help to understand the story. Despite the fact that the halls in the theatres vary considerably in size and, accordingly, the number of zones, the places for spectators are always available.
This is part of the hall in the theater in which the location of the seats starts from the stage (or the orchestra pit) and ends with the opposite wall or the amphitheatre (if any). Traditionally, the orchestra is below the stage by approximately one meter and the same distance above the level of the orchestra pit. As already mentioned, many Amateurs believe that the stalls – it's expensive and good seats. In fact, it does not always correspond to the truth, because at all times the most expensive were the tickets in the box. And the convenience of the first places in the stalls is not always justified. If the audience came to listen to a classical concert, he doesn't have time to see everything that happens on stage. Another thing - the play. Seats in the first row of the stalls will provide the viewer a sense of involvement in the action that unfolds on the stage.
The Idea of the location of spectators on the principle of modern parterre appeared in Ancient Rome. There were benches for the senators, which were located in the theater.
During the middle Ages theatrical performances, as is known, was banned, so the new theater building is not built. The only thing that could count the audience – Church views, which were played inside the temples. Over time the audience became more and more, so already from the 12th century, the view began to give on the porch. Itself the stage was long enough, and the audience could be placed along it.
In the 16th century setting of the morality play and mystery were forced to move to the street. To do this, at the time of submission some part of it fenced. Wealthy citizens had the opportunity to watch the view from the Windows and balconies of the houses, which were located on the same street. Poor citizens and people of the lower class had to find a place on earth. Most likely, this is the word parterre. From the French "par terre" literally translates "to earth."
The Theatres again began to be built in Italy only in the early Renaissance. While developing their projects integrated and seats in the stalls. The scheme of construction of assumed that the place near the stage will take the people of the lower class. Therefore, in the stalls not provided chairs.
Since the 17th century in England began to appear seated in the stalls. But to use them could only people of noble origin. In addition, these places were not constant. Chairs were set up and cleaned if necessary.
The First stationary chairs appeared in the stalls of the theatre of Boston. This idea was brought to life by the architect K. Lida after the French revolution, which brought democratic ideas to the masses. The idea of equality was to the viewers who watch the show in the stalls, had the same amenities as the dignitaries in the box.
In Russian theaters in the 18th century there had been no expensive seats in the stalls. Besides themselves was a little – only two rows. In order to use them, they had prematurely to subscribe. It could afford mostly high-ranking officials. The parterre was called the empty space, which was separated from the seats by a string.
The Seats in the stalls were relatively cheap, and could afford creative people. It was artists, poets, students who were willing to wait the idea for several hours. The fact that a show that was popular, more than a thousand spectators gathered in the stalls. What is it, modern fan of theater it is hard to imagine, after all, to occupy a comfortable place, young people come for three hours prior to the event. Cheaper seats in the stalls were only those who were on the balcony.
In Russia, as well as in Europe, the audience were in those places that correspond to their status.
Little has changed in our time. Very popular among fans of the theatre continues to enjoy the stalls. What is it in the modern theater?
The Location of the seats in the stalls parallel to the barrier of the orchestra. For convenience of the audience they are separated by aisles that lead to exits from the hall. Better visibility is provided by the increased levels sex from first series to last. According to most viewers, the best in the ground are the Central place of the seventh number.
