Dreaming of a Theater

theater, stage, theatre · mixed, mostly pleasant

The theater is about pleasure and new company, lasting or fleeting depending on your role.

What happens in the dream

  • You're on stage: short-lived pleasures
  • You're at the theater: good times with new friends, and satisfying affairs
  • A vaudeville show: you risk losing property through silly pleasures
  • A grand opera: your hopes will be fulfilled
  • You clap and laugh: you'll put fancy ahead of duty
  • You flee a theater during a fire or panic: a risky venture

How you felt

  • Wonder: a wish to step out of everyday life
  • Playing a part: perhaps a sense of not quite being yourself

Ask yourself

  • Where do I feel I'm playing a part?
  • What kind of escape do I need?
