Study of the Absolute meaning and Usage Meaning of the Stage Materials in a Stage Play

Abstract In the stage drama productions we observed, numerous stage materials were capable of conveying various ideas. However, these materials are recognized by the audience as elements of theatrical expression. The stage decorations, props, and background designs seen on stage can be understood as physical objects utilized in theatrical performances. Through these physical elements, the playwright or director attempts to socially articulate their creative expression. This practice dates back to early human civilization and was similarly evident in ritualistic performances. From the earliest theatrical instances to the present, physical objects have played a crucial role in stage productions. This research paper explores how these objects are used in contemporary stage drama. It also examines the meaning attributed to any object once it is incorporated into a theatrical performance. The study addresses these questions through participatory observation,which serve as the primary data sources for this research. Keywords – Stage play, Stage materials, Absolute meaning, Usage Meaning

This practice dates back to early human civilization and was similarly evident in ritualistic performances. From the earliest theatrical instances to the present, physical objects have played a crucial role in stage productions. This research paper explores how these objects are used in contemporary stage drama. It also examines the meaning attributed to any object once it is incorporated into a theatrical performance.
