This group will also be opening channels of communication by creating a phone service for the students to call to find out about upcoming events, as well as auditions. Hopefully, this will eventually be expanded for the use of all campus events. The organization is not only for theatre students to socialize among themselves. It has a greater common goal with the students of the Stony Brook campus. The goal is to bring the students together.
Theatre is a very effective form of expression, education, and communication.
It can not only be used to entertain students on a Saturday night, but it can also be used in peer education, crisis prevention, and the expression of common campus views. The theatrical experience can be carried into every day life for the observer, as well for the participant. Being active within the theatre sharpens communication skills and increases one's self-confidence. Observing theatre opens the mind and allows one to be in touch with what is going on around them. For these and many other reasons, theatre is a critical aspect of the college experience.
