ABSTRACT
A web-based virtual theater was created to provide students learning introductory theatrical concepts with a more engaging means of exploring the possibilities of set design, lighting, prop placement, and actor blocking. Web delivery without plug-ins allows a very large number of students to access the site with minimal support requirements. The system can be used as an experimentation lab, a design tool, and an in-class instructional system for illustrating concepts.
