Working in theatre ..complete

I often wonder what people struck in ordinary mechanical or semi mechanical jobs think about the lives of People pursuing “glamorous” careers including theater. Half of the crowd that comes to English theatrical plays in Lahore does so for the glamour and the English.

Working in English Stage Theater in Lahore is a very refreshing experience. Besides the caste of the play, everyone else is involved in interacting with the world outside. Procuring material for the sets, arranging the sounds and the lights, getting publicity material and publishing it, everything makes you feel like if you are doing something international in a Pakistani surroundings .Neighborhood guys and guls acting as the characters in the plays and getting into the skin of the character is very creative

.Theater can be a very wonderful way to discover yourself if you do it with an intention to do so nd do justice to your character.
Here is how Pakistani English Theater can help people in their lives.

You get into the skin of character of someone from an English novel. The thoughts of being inside the character even after the rehearsals of the play can help you come up with good ideas to rejuvenate yourself. Just the stark contrast of the life and times of the character and our own lives is big enough to open up a world of perspectives to us.

Acting like a person entirely different from yourself helps you forget the entire burden you’re carrying for a while. It helps you to be more confident and shed any shyness you are carrying along

The experience of being on the stage performing in front of a crowd is an amazing one.

Rehearsals and the whole process is a good socializing too.
