In the theatre, everyone deals with it. Theatre teaches group dynamics. Theatre is a communal experience. It is the kind of work that involves taking responsibility, interacting with others, solving problems creatively, and accepting team challenges. It is an art form in which, very often, the whole is greater than the sum of the parts.
Theatre teaches grace under pressure.
Opening nights always come and the show must go on. All theatrical productions are, in effect, mini-corporations targeted toward the completion of a project within a specific time frame, with budgets, deadlines, specialized departments within an infrastructure, chains of command, workers and supervisors. Productions can succeed or fail. They demand the best effort that one can give. Theatre develops specific skills.
