Identify the stage directions in this excerpt from Trifles by Susan Glaspell. MRS PETERS: I don't know, unless it got sick and died. (She reaches over and swings the broken door, swings it again, both women watch it.) MRS HALE: You weren't raised round here, were you? (MRS PETERS shakes her head) You didn't know—her? MRS PETERS: Not till they brought her yesterday.

The answer is the text in parentheses, where the actions and directions are described. Stage directions is basically what the actors are supposed to do on stage. For example : pick up a pan. So basically everything in pars theses are stage directions
