The origins of theatre, according to our textbook, is believed to have been in Sub Sharan Africa.  From the earliest time, communities trusted drama to invoke religious rites, connect with the dead, record history, teach lessons, and predict the future. The most interesting thing I learned from the chapter is how theatre is so connected to the human experience. For each culture to have a unique way to tell their stories, some having survived until today, it shows the importance of people being able to connect with others beyond—sometimes, in spite of— our words. It was interesting to be able to compare theatre in Greece, where men utilized thought and charisma to challenge the audience and politics to the dramas of Japan, who sing, chant, and dance to beat of drums.
