"Why do we love theatre?"

Why do we love theatre? I think every theatre fan bears his own answer. For lots of people theatre has become a kind of magic where actors transform into various characters. A dramatic performance was the only chance to show somebody else’s life for societies without cinematograph. Life of others is always interesting to us. We compare it to ours and we are happy if our life is better as well as we feel sorrow if our life is worse. That is why theatre became so popular in ancient Greece and then has spread into other countries. At present almost every country boasts at least one theatre with a stock company (постоянная театральная труппа).

The history of our country can name such well-known play writers as Chekhov, Ostrovsky, Bulgakov, Kotlyarevsky and many others. Today their dramas obtain new representation in the foreign producers’ hands. There is also a galaxy of brilliant actors who put their heart into every role they play.

Despite of the popularity of cinematograph many people still show passion towards theatre performances.

When it comes to drama, one fabulous name can’t be forgotten - the name of William Shakespeare, a great English writer and poets. His plays like “Romeo and Juliet”, “Othello”, “King Macbeth” are well-known all over the world. Shakespeare lived in the period of time when English theatre was just starting up. There were many troops but no buildings for them. Shakespeare’s «Globe» was one of the first theaters in London.

Until the arrival of Bernard Show nobody could beat the popularity of Shakespeare’s compositions. English theatres can’t name very much famous writers and actors. They tend more to musicals and operas. For example Covent Garden, Royal Albert Hall and London Coliseum are the largest London theatres designed for operas and other musical performances.

So, people still enjoy going to the theatre, because theatre is, of course, the reflection of life. And how William Shakespeare once said: “All the world is a stage, and all the man and women merely players… and one man in his time plays many parts…”
