proscenium arch

Bedoelen ze misschien de toneellijst c.q. prosceniumboog?

"The Opera House has 12,000 square feet with spectacular views from the balcony. Over the original stage is a gorgeous 35-foot **proscenium arch** and all modern lighting and sound equipment to compliment any performance. "
http://www.theoperahousetoronto.com/

"The audience is positioned in front of the stage, and the stage can be looked upon like a picture frame. The ‘frame’ itself is called the **Proscenium Arch**. This is the style of most traditional theatres."

met deze beschrijving (van de renovatie van een scèneboog)

http://www.regiedesbatiments.be/persberichten_nl.cfm?key=107

en het feit dat diezelfde scèneboog in de Franse versie van dit persbericht 'cadre de scène' wordt genoemd

http://www.regiedesbatiments.be/persberichten_fr.cfm?key=107

lijken mijn vermoeden te bevestigen. Een 'cadre de scène' is nl. de toneellijst/prosceniumboog.

Peer comment(s):

agree writeaway : I found that too-but it seems to be part of the seating arrangement, not the stage itself. I was hoping Asker would provide more info plus the actual Dutch./oeuf corse it's La Monnaie-should have just posted the term instead of waiting for info ;-)

Ik heb nog wat verder gesnuffeld en ik geloof dat het toch echt wel klopt. Zie mijn toegevoegde noot.
agree Adam Smith : This was my first thought as well!
