🧪 Theater Theater Directing Simulation

Interactive stage-directing simulator: block actors into formations on a 3D stage and see, in real time, what percentage of the audience has a clear sightline to your focal actor, plus live composition-balance and stage-depth readouts.

Directing a scene means solving two problems at once: does every seat in the house have a clear view of the moment that matters, and does the stage picture read as balanced? This simulator puts you in the director's chair with a real 3D stage, a fan of raked audience seats, and a set of actors you can block into classic formations — line, triangle, diagonal, scatter. Pick which performer currently draws focus and the simulator raycasts from every seat to that actor, coloring the house green where the sightline is clear and red where another actor or a set piece masks the view, while live readouts track sightline coverage, stage-left/stage-right visual balance, and how much of the stage depth your blocking actually uses.

⚙ Under the hood

This simulation allows users to practice directing a theatrical performance, making decisions about staging, movement, and actor interaction.
