Question 2

You're in a US theatre just after WW II, and you're looking on a stage that is much simpler that you're accustomed to seeing.
 
  Rather than the usual detailed scenery, you're seeing a simplified setting that is suggestive rather than literal, one with several levels, partial walls, and a large piece of sculpture upstage center, a piece that suggests an angel, or perhaps an abstract sculpture, on which light plays continuously through the evening, changing color, intensity, angle. You are almost certainly at a production under the direct influence of: a. Appia and Craig
  b. Ibsen
  c. New Stagecraft
  d. Theatre of Cruelty
  e. Both a and c
