Being a complete art novice with no formal artistic training whatsoever, Theatre Revolve has provided a medium and a space for me to satisfy my curiosities about art. It has given me an outlet and a strong foundation on which to build upon. Theatre Revolve has revived the suffocating artist that was once me.
