Not sure I agree. Search back among the posts for my essay with "fire triangle theory" in the title.

All you need to create theatre is a performer, a performance, and an audience. (And without ALL three of those present, it's not theatre.)


Things like venues, scripts, & directors are all highly desirable improvements, but still rank lower in necessity...you CAN have successful theatre that doesn't necessarily incorporate one or more of those elements.
