Question

which two dramatic techniques could best show the passage of time from day to night?
props
(marked) sound
costumes
blocking
scenery
(marked) lighting

Explanation:

To show the passage of time from day to night in a theatrical context, lighting is a key technique (e.g., transitioning from bright, warm lights for day to dim, cool lights for night). Additionally, scenery can be used (e.g., changing set pieces to reflect daytime vs. nighttime environments like a sunny park vs. a moonlit street). Props, sound, and blocking are less direct for time-of-day transitions, while costumes relate more to character/setting than time progression.

Answer:

A. scenery, B. lighting
