Question

show what you know assessment
blank is minimal to this stage and its alternate name is blank
options: audience, lighting, flexible stage, scenery, open stage, theatre in-the-round

Explanation:

For the first blank, we consider elements related to a stage. Scenery is often minimal on certain stages. For the second blank, the "open stage" has alternate names or is associated with minimal scenery. So we match the terms: scenery is minimal to this stage, and its alternate name is open stage (or checking the options, scenery fits the first blank as it's an element that can be minimal, and open stage as the alternate name for a stage with minimal scenery).

Answer:

First blank: scenery
Second blank: open stage
