You need to find out how the school handles safety rules on the stage—Chris Tabb mentioned tactile floor markings and this is how you can enable your student to follow their policy. (I’m sure you are aware that stages are very dangerous due to the drop off at the front of the stage into the audience or the orchestra pit. One theatre major told me the professor would forbid students from sitting on the front edge with feet dangling because they should never be that close.) Sighted actors rely on glow tape to navigate the stage in the dark between scenes and these markings will need the tactile component although your student might need additional markings to locate entrances etc. ?

Hi? from Quebec,
I have a student, 20 years old,? with light perception, who is going to study in theatre next semester.
I was asking to orient him on different stages, of the campus.
Of course, I will take our time to give him a good familiarization of each stage while working with him, but it will be without accessories/furnitures, without his classmates and with a regular lighting (not the one that will be for the performances).
Knowing that he won't use all the time his cane? while he will perform do you have any tricks or advices that I can give him?
Thanks in advance for your responses,
Anne
