What is a "box set"?
A box set is a type of stage design in theater that creates the illusion of an interior room with three walls, a ceiling, and sometimes a floor, all constructed on stage. The fourth wall, facing the audience, is "invisible" and allows viewers to see into the space as if they are looking into a real room. This setup is often used to create realistic, detailed settings for plays, helping to immerse the audience in the story. The box set typically includes furniture and other props to complete the environment.
Example
The filmmaker inscribed the DVD box set with a special dedication to the cast and crew who contributed to the project.
