Seascape is set on a beach in a time contemporary with when the play was written. Though It is unstated in the text, several critics have assumed that the action takes place somewhere on the east coast of the United States. All of the play is confined to one afternoon. This physical setting emphasizes the transitional state of the characters lives.
