A director's chair is a type of folding chair commonly used in film and theater productions. It features a tall back, armrests, and a seat made of canvas or fabric, providing comfort and support. The chair is designed to be lightweight and portable, making it easy for directors and crew members to move around set locations. These chairs often have a distinctive design, with a frame typically made of wood or aluminum. The name "director's chair" comes from its association with film directors, who often use them on set to oversee production. They are also popular for outdoor events and casual seating.
