Progress in Research on Temporary Stage Techniques

Temporary stage, a removable stage temporarily built before the start of performance, is characterized by short service period and rapid construction and highly suitable for performances in rural areas, remote mountainous areas and outdoor spaces. This paper describes the significance of the application of temporary stage, summarizes the structural forms and construction features of temporary stages in China, and analyzes structural advantages and disadvantages of different types of temporary stages. The study of literature on relevant journal articles and patents included by CNKI (China National Knowledge Infrastructure) reveals that China’s temporary stage techniques lag behind, and it is not until 2010 that gradual development in this field was witnessed.
