The playlet is set on a darkened stage. The customary reflectors on the orchestra racks are employed as blinders, throwing a dull glare into the auditorium while causing the darkness on the stage to be vividly black. The actors are set in concentrated light so that only the head and bust can be seen. From the opening of the sketch, the house is dimmed into inky darkness and the sudden bright light attracts interest at one. The curiosity is intensified when the shadings of the lights brings adifferent color or combination of colors. The witness stand is about 2 ft by 3 ft deep. The light above the stand is the only one on stage, and it goes out when each witness is dismissed.

The setting represents a room in the “White Hart Inn,” an English pub in the days of Shakespeare. The quaint furnishings lend to the atmosphere.
