About

A theatre artist is an actor who uses a stage to perform based on a real or fictional story in front of a live audience during one single take. Theatre artists are different from television or film actors for the same reason because they have no second chance to make it better. They need to give their best performance in that one single take. This includes acts, musicals, poetry, dances, performances to demonstrate their art. A theater technician is someone who does behind-the-scenes work in a theater. They set up a theater, set up props, and so on.They are responsible for redesigning the stage, scenery, lighting, music, and more. They work with the artist to create a backdrop that gives the scene a real feel.
