Theatre and theatre making has allowed humans to fly beyond space. Photography strengthened the moon trip, according to Benjamin Grant. Further, like never before, the camera helped people tour the world. The camera also allowed astronauts to view the earth from within and thus to discover occult mysteries. Astronauts have therefore appreciated the beauty of the earth, the increasing relationship with living beings and an overwhelming sense of emotion. The camera has thus influenced the Earth's visual reality.
In addition, theatre has increased the notion of the world and the surrounding cosmos. Only a small percentage has been to space but with theatre, everyone has a perspective of space outlook. The Adobe MAX has enabled recreation of the earth and the space. The software allows for 3-D tour to space and any other part of the earth. As a result, humans have been able to interact with places they have not been to in real life. Further, satellites with cameras are used to recreate space. These satellites take videos of the space, which are later captured and edited. The final copy is developed to a movie ready for view in the theatre. Satellite cameras are also used to develop clips of actual happenings in other parts of the world. For example, the camera can capture a football match, which is then transmitted to the theatre for viewing. The audience gets the same feeling as the viewers of the live match. The contemplation of theatre content leads to greater interest in our planet and the space. Types of theatre spacesSpace is achieved as a result between stage place, dramatic and gestural space. Theatre space is an important notion that plays a bigger role in most performance production. The most common forms of theatre spaces are proscenium stage, thrust theatre stage, and the arena theatre. Proscenium stage is the most common. The picture frame is placed at the front of the stage. The audience sits facing the stage. In addition, the stage is raised above the audience sitting level. With the front stage, the audience only views one side of the scene, that is, the front faceA thrust theatre stage is popular for its arrangement. In thrust theatre, the audience is sited on three sides and the fourth side serves as the backstage. The artist is therefore surrounded by audience from the three sides. The thrust stage provides intimacy between the audience and the performers, as they is a direct relationship. Often, the stage is square or rectangular in shape. The seats are gathered around the stage. An Arena stage is known by its central playground setup where audience occupies all sides of the stage. The stage should be raised to allow proper viewing by audience. The entrance to the stage is underground, thus the audience enter and settle around the stage. Other stages include end stage, flexible theatre, profile theatre and ancillary areas, which are less popular. Theatre organization often determines the success of a play. Good research and planning will lead into a clarifying picture to the audience. The script, process, product, and the audience are the basic elements of theatre organization. The script, plan or scenario should be simplified and easy to understand. Brevity of the script helps the director build a production. Sequential scriptwriting enhances understanding and motivates the audience to continue watching. An organized theatre is dependent on a clear process in production. The director should ensure continuity in shooting and editing. Therefore, every action should be aimed at achieving a specific objective of the play. In addition, costumes and background music should be related to the script to establish a continuous flow in the production process.The product is the end result of the production. The product calls for all persons involved in production to come together and evaluate the product’s efficiency as compared to the set objectives. Organizing the product to meet the objectives ensures audience needs are satisfied.The audience plays a key role in motivating and inspiring the actors. Audience presence in the theatre creates expectations on actors’ performance, thus setting goals to be achieved. Therefore, for a complete and organized theatre, the physical presence of audience is esteemed.Types of theatresTheatres are classified into professional and amateur theatres. Professional theatres are meant for commercial purposes. Professional theatres include commercial and subsidized theatres. Commercial theatres lease a theatre to commercial landlords to generate profits. Again, commercial theatres benefit from sale of previous productions. On the other hand, subsidized theatres do not generate profits but operate donations and grants. The subsidized cost makes subsidized theatres accessible by all people.Amateur theatres incorporate amateur singers and actors. It forms a basis for developing talents, thus the actors are not paid. Instead, amateur artists use amateur theatres as avenues for growth. Hence, amateur theatres are important in developing singers, comedians, and artists. In addition, amateur theatre serves to pass time and luxury unlike professional theatres. ConclusionTheatre and theatre-making serve commercial and entertainment purposes. Professional theatres are meant to generate income while amateur theatres are meant for entertainment and nurturing talent. Technology has influenced knowledge of the earth and space through recreation of the reality.
