STAGE
A raised platform suggestus -us (Liv.): suggestum (Cic.): catasta (a platform on which slaves were exhibited for sale): tabulatum (made of boards): machina: machinatio (considered as an artificial structure): pegma -atis (Auson. ☞ In classical writers = a book-case [Cic.] or a machine used in a theatre [Sen.]). To prepare a stage machinam comparare; machinationem praeparare instruere.
Place for actors in a theatre proscenium (space between the scena scenes and the orchestra; the pulpitum was the part of the proscenium which was nearest the orchestra). Our word “stage” may be represented by the more general terms scena theatrum. Of or belonging to the stage scenicus: theatralis. To enter upon the stage in scenam prodire produci (of an actor). To retire from the stage de scena recedere; scenam relinquere (of an actor). To make one’s first appearance on the stage [Vid: DEBUT]. The action is represented on the stage res agitur in scenis: on the stage = theatrically in fabulis: to bring upon the stage novam fabulam in scenam inducere producere.
Figuratively Place of action or display theatrum scena. To go off the stage a publico rerum gerendarum theatro recedere; e sole et pulvere in umbram et otium recedere (after Cic.); se removere a publicis negotiis (Cic.). To quit the stage = to die a vita recedere; vita decedere (Cic.).
Degree in a journey statio: stabulum (place for changing horses; the proper word of the Silver Age; Vid: Gierig. Plin. Ep. 6 19 4): hospitium ac stabulum: stabulum ac deversorium (quarters).
A stage-coach; i.e. coach that travels by stages vehiculum publicum.
Single step in any progress gradus.

stage:
I. A raised platform: esp. for actors:
1. pulpĭtum: to approach (the sovereign) by a sloping s., subire per devexum p., Suet. Ner. 13: but the word is rare except in ref. to the theatre: in this sense it is often pl.: cf. Hor. A. P. 279 (modicis instravit pulpita tignis): Ov.
2. proscēnium (the part of a theatre, immediately in front of the scena, which latter would usually represent a building of some kind): Liv. 40, 51: also in pl., Virg. G. 2, 381, veteres ineunt proscenia ludi. (N.B.--In certain phrr., however, scēna is used where we should use s.: to appear upon the s., in scenam prodire, Nep. pref.: a thing is acted on the stage, agitur res in scenis, Hor. A. P. 179: Cic.)
3. suggestus, -tum: v.PLATFORM .
4. perh. pegma, ătis, n. (explained as denoting a kind of moveable s. for automata, etc.: yet in Sen. Ep. 88, 19, and Suet. Cl. 34, pegmata are evidently the puppets themselves rather than the stages on which they were shown): Plin. 33, 3, 16.
5. tăbŭlātum (floor or s. made of planks): Sen. l. c.
6. māchĭna (a term applicable to any kind of framework or scaffolding): v.SCAFFOLD .
II. Meton., dramatic acting, the theatre:
1. scēna: the s. is crowded with crimes such as these, s. referta est his sceleribus, Cic. N. D. 3, 27, 69. Orestes tormented on the s., scenis agitatus Orestes, Virg. Aen. 4, 471: mockery worthy of the s., ludibria scena et pulpito digna, Plin. Ep. 4, 25.
2. less freq. pulpĭtum: the bard who lives by the s., vates quem pulpita pascunt, Juv. 7, 93.
3. theātrum: v.THEATRE . Phr.: the most foolish character on the s., in fabulis stultissima persona, Cic. Am. 26, fin.: these persons disapprove of the s. altogether, *his omnino displicent fabulae quae in scenis aguntur. Relating to the s., scēnĭcus: s.-plays, actors, etc., ludi, actores scenici: Ter.: Cic.: Liv.
III. Field of action: campus, lŏcus, ārea: v.FIELD (III.). (Not scena in this sense, nor even theatrum, though the latter occurs in somewhat similar use, Quint. 1, 2, 9, frequentia gaudere ac majore se theatro dignum putare: also scena is used fig. to denote publicity: the s. of the world: Hor. S. 2, 1, 71, a vulgo et scena se removere: Cic.)
IV. On a journey: expr. by ĭter: by very long s.s, maximis i., Caes. B. G. 1, 7: an ordinary day's s., justum diei i., id. B. C. 3, 76: by easy s.s, *brevibus lentisque i. (Statio, stabulum denote the place rested at: for stabulum, cf. Plin. 6, 19, 4.)
V. Step of progress: grădus: v.STEP .
