Theatre works in many different ways... It has evolved from what it used to be. When theatre was first starting it needed just an actor and an audience. But as time has gone on we now have many positions in theatre. The basic requirement for "theatre" though is; an actor, an audience (even of one), and the suspension of disbelief.
