Relate theater to my life

Before understanding theater I would not be able to relate it to my life. I would just say I'm not an actress so theater has nothing to do with my life. But I learned that there is a lot more to theater then just acting. In my life I play many different roles, like an actor, I play the role of a friend, a student, a daughter, a sister, a listener, a talker. I use many emotions every day, I laugh, I cry, I get mad, and upset. I know that my past with cheerleading and coaching can relate to an actor and a director. Also my interest in fashion relates to costumes in a play. I think that without realized it theater can relate to anyone's life.
I can relate theater to my many years of dancing and cheerleading. I can relate to an actress with the preparation and hard work they put in to one performance. I practiced every day and trained outside of practice to make sure I was doing everything right. I know that like an actress goes over her lines, I went over my moves. I can remember a performance where I dropped my flyer in a stunt, I learned that if something goes wrong to keep going. So we played it off like nothing happened and kept going with the performance. Everything ended up going very well and we still placed. I know that in a performance if someone messed up their lines they play it off like nothing happened and would keep on going. Or if someone happens to get hurt they work with what they have to complete the play the best they can, just like in cheerleading if someone is sick or hurt we may have to work around that and plan something new. But in the end we know it was for the best. There were times when I was nervous to get up in front of a crowd, afraid something would go wrong. I can relate to stage fright, because even though I wasn't on a stage, I was on a mat in front of hundreds of people. The spotlight has been on me before and after I know how rewarding it can be. I know that a director is also like a coach, which I have been too. It takes a big responsibility to try and have everyone listen to you as well as perfect a performance. The director is in charge of putting everything together, they see what others might not see and try to fix it. Just like a coach who stands on the sidelines and watches the players, and is able to help fix what he or she might see that is wrong.
I am also interested in fashion and think it can relate to costumes in a play. There are days that I want to dress up and other days I just want to be casual. Sometimes I add jewelry to my outfit or fancy shoes. Just like in a play an actress can have many costumes and she changes her clothes with the mood of the scene, similar to me changing my outfit depending what mood I am in.
I think theater relates to everyone's life. Everyone goes through hard times and wishes they could get away, or be someone else for a day. I think that being an actress allows them to play another role and pretend to be someone else for a short time. I know that sometimes when I am upset I try to hide it and act like nothing is wrong, just like in a play.
