Taking the Stage 走上舞台

One of the unique approaches taken in this year's showcase was that instead of using a conventional performance space - with the audience sitting in rows of chairs facing the stage - different performances were set up in various areas around the auditorium, effectively bringing the spectators into the performance.

今年的演出采用了一种独特的展现形式：不同于以往传统的表演场地--观众坐在一排排椅子上面向舞台，今年我们在观众席周围的不同区域设置了不同的表演，有效的将观众带入了整场演出。

Utilizing the space in this way, we were able to provide students with an understanding that theatre and music can be staged anywhere; it doesn't have to be in a conventional theatre. Additionally, this structure introduced new elements of arts learning to the students, as they were faced with, and had to solve, the challenges of setting up lights and sound in new ways.

我们这样安排表演场地，目的是让学生了解戏剧和音乐可以在任何地方上演; 它并不是必须在传统的剧院里。此外，我们通过这样的安排为学生们带来了新的艺术学习元素和新的挑战，正如他们所面对的，必须以新的方式设置灯光和音响。
