Answer to Question 1

Theatre spaces reflect social hierarchy, for both audiences and performers. As an audience member, where you sit and how you enter and exit can confer status. For centuries, nobility used one set of entrances and common people, another. Elite audience members often set in locked boxes, and kings sat where the entire audience could see them. Egalitarian seating arrangements developed with the democratic revolutions of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Today, audience members may enter through the same doors, but they are segregated by the economics of ticket prices. The size and location actors' dressing rooms might indicate their status as performers, with the stars' being located closest to the stage.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
