1. Stage Configurations and Performance Spaces | 舞台配置与表演空间

Proscenium Arch: A stage framed by an arch that creates a ‘picture frame’ effect; the audience faces one side directly. This traditional layout separates the action from the spectators.

镜框式舞台：由拱形框架环绕的舞台，形成“画框”效果；观众直接面向舞台一侧，将表演区与观众席明确分隔。

Thrust Stage: A stage that extends into the auditorium, with spectators seated on three sides. This increases intimacy and demands actors consider sightlines from all angles.

伸出式舞台：舞台延伸至观众席，观众位于三面，增强了亲密感，并要求演员考虑各角度的视线。

Traverse Stage: A layout with a long central performance area and audience seated on two opposite sides, like a catwalk. It creates a corridor effect and emphasises linear movement.

横穿式舞台：中央为长条形表演区，观众分坐两侧，如T台，形成走廊效果，强调线性移动。

In-the-round (Arena): The stage is fully surrounded by the audience on all sides, requiring 360-degree blocking and careful use of levels to avoid blocking sightlines.

圆形舞台（竞技场舞台）：观众环绕舞台四周，要求全方位的走位设计并巧妙利用高度层次以避免遮挡观众视线。

Promenade: The audience moves around the performance space, following the action from location to location; common in immersive and site-specific theatre.

流动式观演：观众在演出空间中随剧情移动，跟随演员转换地点；常见于沉浸式戏剧和特定场域演出。

Black Box: A flexible, plain rectangular room with black walls and a flat floor, allowing the production to create any stage-audience configuration through movable seating and rostra.

黑箱剧场：灵活的空旷矩形空间，黑墙平地板，可通过可移动座椅和平台搭建成任何舞台-观众布局。

2. Vocal Skills and Terminology | 声音技巧与术语

Pitch: The highness or lowness of voice. Raising pitch can convey excitement, nervousness, or childishness; lowering pitch often implies authority or menace. Think of a musical scale.

音调：嗓音的高低。升高音调可表达兴奋、紧张或幼稚；降低音调常暗示权威或威胁。想象音阶的变化。

Pace: The speed of speech. A fast pace signals urgency, panic, or excitement; a slow pace can build tension, sadness, or thoughtfulness. Remember ‘pace’ as the tempo of dialogue.

语速：说话的速度。快语速表示紧急、恐慌或激动；慢语速可营造紧张、悲伤或沉思感。将“pace”记为对话的节拍。

Pause: A deliberate silence used to create suspense, indicate a shift in thought, or allow a moment to resonate. Pauses are powerful; they make the audience lean in.

停顿：有意的沉默，用以制造悬念、表明思路转变或让某个瞬间深入人心。停顿极具力量，能让观众凝神屏息。

Volume: The loudness or softness of voice. Projecting ensures audibility in a large space, while a whisper can draw an audience into an intimate secret.

音量：声音的大小。投射音量可确保大场地中的清晰度，而低语则能引领观众进入一个私密秘密。

Tone: The emotional colouring of voice, such as warm, sarcastic, anxious, or authoritative. Tone adds subtext and reveals how a character truly feels beneath the words.

语气：声音的情感色彩，如温暖、讽刺、焦虑或威严。语气增添潜台词，揭示角色在言语之下的真实感受。

Articulation: The clarity of speech, specifically crisp consonants and precise diction, so every word reaches the audience distinctly. Think ‘crisp consonants cut through’.

吐字清晰：咬字的清晰度，特别是辅音的干脆利落和措辞准确，确保每个词都被观众听清。想象“干脆辅音，直击人心”。

Projection: Using breath support and resonance from the diaphragm to carry the voice to the back of the auditorium without shouting. Imagine filling the space with your voice.

声音投射：运用横膈膜的呼吸支持与共鸣，将声音传至观众席后排而非靠喊叫。想象你的声音充盈整个空间。

Intonation: The rise and fall of voice, like a melody. Varied intonation prevents a monotonous delivery and signals emotional journey – rising at the end of a question, falling at a resolution.

语调：嗓音的升降起伏，犹如旋律。多变的语调避免单调，并揭示情感历程——问句末尾上扬，结论处下沉。

3. Physical and Movement Terminology | 形体与动作术语

Body Language: The non-verbal signals sent through posture, gesture, and movement. It acts as silent
