You don't necessarily "need" to understand it in order to enjoy the story - but the more you know about the story, the better you will understand all of it and not just the basic plot.
Characters help us to understand the theme of a story because the actions and thoughts of a character explain to the reader what is going on. Without characters a story would just be a group of words.

Analyzing the theme of a story does involve breaking it down into parts. You must analyze each part of the story and understand how it all comes together before you will understand what the theme is.
The theme for the short story "You Need To Go Upstairs", is that every problem can be conquered.
The theme of the Story is ....... .........,............................... .......... In the story and read it and understand it Also im a Teacher if someone in the class of mine saw this i warned u!
Many things can help understand the theme. If you're looking for one word, you might be thinking of symbols
In my opinion, the theme of this story is that you should have confidence in yourself. If you read the book you'd understand.
