floor of the house
teatro grindys / scenos grindys


Explanation:
Stage left is to the actor's left when he is facing the audience. Stage right is to the actor's right when he is facing the audience. The floor of the house is the floor beneath the audience's feet - whether that be on the same level as the stage or not.

Example sentence(s):
  • Aktorius deklamauodamas savo eiles žiūrėjo į scenos grindis / į publiką.
  • Vertėjas gali sedėti scenos kairėje / dešinėje pusėje arba prie scenos, su žiūrovais.

Explanation:
Žr. aukščiau
Paprasčiau pasakyti, kad vertėjas gali sėdėti scenos kairėje / dešinėje pusėje arba auditorijoje. Viena iš "floor" reikšmių Anglone tiesiog ir yra auditorija.
