                    [Summary] => 

“Drama is a mirror of life. It conveys life; it communicates man’s outer and inner expressions; it is man speaking of himself, for himself, to other human beings to share his thoughts, ideas, beliefs, values, longings and aspirations. It is the human being extending arms, mind, and heart, giving meaning to life as events unfold, whether significant or immaterial.”
