Using the stage directions in this script, place the people and objects as they would appear on stage. The astronauts, Sarah and Thomas, are seated upstage in a simulation room looking forward at a large screen. Sarah is to the left of Thomas. The man who controls the machine, Drew, looks on from their left and then moves upstage to start the machine.THOMAS: Well, it looks like it’s about to begin.SARAH (Away from Thomas to look at Drew): Yes, here we go!DrewSarahscreenThomascontrols

The stage would be set up as follows:

1. The large screen would be placed at the center of the stage, towards the back (upstage).

2. The simulation room would be set around the screen, indicating that it's a part of the room.

3. Sarah and Thomas, the astronauts, would be seated upstage, facing the screen. Since Sarah is to the left of Thomas, she would be placed slightly to the left side of the stage (from the audience's perspective), and Thomas would be to her right.

4. Drew, the man who controls the machine, would initially be positioned to the left of Sarah and Thomas (from the audience's perspective). This means he would be on the far left side of the stage.

5. When Drew moves upstage to start the machine, he would move towards the back of the stage, likely near where the large screen is placed. This indicates that the machine he controls is probably near the screen.

6. When Sarah turns away from Thomas to look at Drew, she would turn her body to face the left side of the stage (from the audience's perspective), where Drew is positioned.
