This is a prime reason why writing a good plays is so very difficult and why, when care is taken by the playwright, words carry more than usual definition of each person's involvement in the drama. By manipulating words, a dramatist can focus an audience's attention on exactly that element in a play that is important at any one moment. The defination given by strong and simple words is a great power in the theatre, for however complicated a particular situation, speech can clarify it and draw it forward. Words are never enough to make a play, and by themselves they achieve comparatively little in the theatre, but in fully developed staging of a story, a single word is sometimes enough to reveal an essential fact or to change everything. Fantastic Theatre can transfer fantasy into the real medium of theatre where an audience can experience these dreams as they were actually happening.
Theatre can even make dreams seem real.
Theatre shows us lives like our own and speaking our language as well as shows us a world that never was. Theatre heightens our response because it can enlarge and clarify any aspect of life. Theatre is an unique art that calls for an audience to react to a lifelike experience. At its fullest power, theatre provides a shared experience that calls upon all our senses. It is a sensational medium that offers an audience an image of life possessing unusal excitement and , at times, a great and strong simplicity.
