About the Play
Act I takes place during a rehearsal for a community theatre production of an original play called "Nine Little Indians". Obo, the playwright, thinks the play is her masterpiece, though the writing leaves a lot to be desired. However, the script is not only problem on set...
Act II takes place on opening night. All of the action is taking place backstage.
About the Set
During Act I, the set is meant to be seen from the front, as a many roomed mansion. The set is still under construction and not finished.
During Act II, the set is meant to appear as the backstage area. The front panels are being removed during intermission so the audience can see "the play-within-the-play" that is being performed.
For the best view of Act II, we reccomend taking a seat in the middle section of the auditorium. This will give you the clearest view of the action.
