Stage Directions are commands and auxiliary instructions which main purpose is to lead and help the actors position themselves on stage.

Stage Directions are also known as "blocking", which is is the accurate staging of actors to ease the production and performance of the drama.

They're also used to guide actors on how to shape their performances, choreographing the production to steer the emotional tone of it.
