This section seems like it is setting the audience up to the fact that this is a play and fictional:

The entire setting is wholly or, in some places, partially transparent. The roof-line of the house is one-dimensional; under and over it we see the apartment buildings.

what do these differences imply about the use of these descriptions compared to the description used in fiction
