Everyone has different ideas, when everyone gives an idea it can become a better idea then only having designer or the director.

I feel like the director should lead everything as they already have a story plot in mind and they would know best what to add like music and lighting to make the atmosphere fit the tone of the play and also they would have the best ideas and they could take advice from the designers to collaborate and build on each others idea. I also think the actors should get a big say as they know what lighting and music is best for their character.

Different people have different perspectives and ideas, with equal creative power for everyone, everyone can have an opinion on the ending stage aesthetics it could be better and suitable for more people.

It's easier for everyone to listen to one person for it to be more organized, and if everyone starts speaking, it is gonna be way harder to come to a conclusion, and if everyone listens to one person they can get their roles faster, since the director already has an idea on what they think the story is going to be like.

I agree with this point because since deisgner and director have different professionals which means their ideas will be different since they have other jobs and if the performance is going designer it will only focus on the designing part of the performance and if it is only director led the scene will not be as interesting since the designer doesn't get to choose that is why I think if both designer and director gets a chance at making decisions it will make the performance very interesting

The director should have the most power for stage aesthetics. Yes, other positions like the performers or designers can offer comments and suggestions, but in the end the final decision rests with the director. Given their understanding of the production, the director is best able to create a clear vision and ensure everything works together.

I agree with this point because the designer design the whole set of the performance, and also get to choose what colour and props to use in order to make the performance appealing

I think that the director should be the one to lead the performance as they have already included what the performance needs to have and the main plot scheme of the performance. Moreover it is the directors duty to lead the performance.

i think that the director has the most power to lead the stage aesthetics,because the people like the designer and the performers gives out comments but at last the final descision goes to the director

all people involved should have an equal power for controling the set. everyone has different ideas, and some may be quite opposite, thus maybe some will not like the decisions made by one/a few person in the group. in order to maintain harmony inside the group, all people shoudl contribute, and lead together as a group instead of leaving all work for 1-2 person. since everyone has different ideas, combining them may also enhance the scene, with many different eprspectives put in, it should be more appealing to more peolpe.

No one will argue for another plan. The director should lead the production since they have a clear story vision and know how to enhance the atmosphere with music and lighting. They can collaborate with designers for ideas. Additionally, actors should have a significant say, as they understand what works best for their characters.
