2. U or Upstage areas, because they are farther from the audience than D or downstage areas, because they are cold and distant, so they are not suitable for love or fighting scenes. UL (upstage left) is the weakest area on stage. Never place an important entrance or exit in this position. This area is best for comic entrances, ghost or less emphatic or less realistic scenes. UR (upstage right) is also weak but stronger than UL. Normal entrance and exits are often here. UC (upstage center) is good to begin the action of powerful and emotional scene and then move to the down stage area for the climax of scene.
