Theater has always and will always be the first light to ignite progress toward a more civilized, cultured, and sophisticated societies. It’s been said, “give me theater and I will grant you a nation”. Theater had always been subject to changes and transformations throughout history, whether it was on stage or the plays being played, and even the act of playing itself developed and evolved.
