Role of Theatre
Theatre should be used as a way for an actor to convey a message, express a thought, or simply coexist with whoever else may be in the room at that time. The fact that I put something onstage does not mean that I am doing this for a certain reason or person; it does not mean that I am trying to convince the audience of anything. It simply means that I want to be on a stage while doing whatever it is that I do. Personally, I enjoy the concept of Poor Theatre and find that these types of performances tend to hold my interest more than any other. I am not distracted by the spectacle and am able to focus on the bodies and voices of the actors.
