Money- an experimental-theatre with brilliant stage design

I strong recommend whom interesting in setting design visiting Shunt for "Money" ( Name of the play which basic on Zola's nineteenthcentury novel 'L'Argent', about financial speculation ). The play showed in a brilliant design stage which is a metal cube as you can see from the photo. The theatre is in a warehouse which is a bar where audience would have a cup of drink before the show stars.

The theatre space (cube) is divided into three floors, and auditorium are two lines of seat opposite to each other on the first floor. The first and second layer of floor are made of perspex glass, which means audiences sitting in the first can have an angle of looking up watching performing on second or voyeuristically peer acting space below. What intriguing images are showed. Not like traditional theatre watching play in front of you. And the well combination of lighting design greatly present this special acting space. During the play, audiences will be invited to the upper floor which is a cube glass stage, where can view voyeuristically acting below through perspex glass, like the floor below audience( first floor) and the floor below that. Standing on the second floor peer the lowest stage which is is divided in two rooms, a livingroom which is 19th century style with a pram, the other room is a sauna with two men lying there.

What is more, this is an interactive performance. Actor transport audience in to the play being one part of this play. For instance, during the play, they began to earn more and more money, audiences were invited to upper floor having a cup of free champagne. This scene: audiences with champagne is one part of the celebration.

Can not describe clearly of this play's cuttingedge stage design due to my poor English. What I try is to share something new and creative in our study area.
