Week 3 : What is theatre and how you think theatre, as a media form, communicates messages to its audience?



       Communication is the transfer of information from one place to another. It requires highly understanding for successful communication where the transmitting and receiving able to conduct the information that conveying clearer and perfectly message. Communications has forms such as face to face, telephone, radio and television. Therefore, my opinion communication by face to face is one of the most efficient ways to communicate. The theater is one of the media form currently is very well known and suitable communication as it use face to face to interact with the audience.

      Why do I say so? Because theater is specializes in art acting and it been perform in front of the audiences which support or represent the cultural backgrounds that clearly reflected in all important items contained within musical instruments, dance moves, costumes and concept presentation. Theater also is a form of performance art that involves three main elements of the audience (receiver), actor (conveyor) and story (message delivered). These three elements are essential for the successful performance because theater is an art show that lifting messages about life, about the norm, the good, bad, evil, and a variety of human character all of these will be appear on stage to be presented to the audience so that the audience accepted act or acting in response to a communication process.

     Theater has to be a symbol of the present human expressions that express several elements like feelings, impressions or certain issues. It also functions to be a preferred entertainment appetite for the communities. Through body language (gestures) or either acting in the musical instruments, dance moves, costumes and presentation concepts, communication media can be included within the audience as things usually issue of humanity always happen in a long road of life. In addition, the theater as well able to stimulate the soul and the mind which is able to stimulate the minds of the audience and create a system to let you continued watching them without leaving performance until to what they perceived, so they would know what has been happening on the stage is a lie and distance not to be influenced by the sentimentality. Audience surely will watch it with diligence and passion to enable them to understand the messages that been delivered as a result, we can see how they expressing themselves in emotional mentality due to the availability laughter, sadness and so on. Obviously, that the theater did not deny the emotions yet seems to engage within living of uncertainty vision. Therefore, this theater should be used out without any abuse as people readily believe in the characters and action into practice in real life.
