I cant seem to identify what or why , but going up a staircase seems to make me want to cry .
This made me curious , so i looked into different possible meanings . My first inclination was to look into a dream dictionary . "you are achieving a higher level of understanding. You are making progress into your spiritual, emotional or material journey". The ascention of staircases is appearantly directly related to coming to a conclusion having risen above the facts to finally see the bigger picture .
The use of staircases through portrayal of emotion on stage is still something i dont fully comprehend how it could work , but i feel like it could be effective if approached properly. I feel that with more thought and more minds behind it , the use of a staircase on stage could be an active prop used in the progression of the storyline .
When I saw Marry Poppins on Broadway this summer the use of a staircase was absolutely perfect within context. The staircase basically worked as the separation between the parents lives of stress and hectic-ness (great vocab, i know) , and the lives and imaginination of the children in their bedrooms upstairs aswell as on the rooftop. The set design , strongly focused around the staircase, was one of the most effective sets ive seen , aside from Theatre Calgary's production of "Much Ado About Nothing."
