The theme of the presented work is the pedagogical impact of theatrical activities on their participants, focusing on their ability to use live speech and satisfy the psychological needs of individuals in the 21st century. The author argues that a broader utilization of theater in education, especially at higher levels, could bring multifaceted benefits. The work emphasizes the role of conscious direct communication and the shared physical presence of the message sender and receiver. This natural interpersonal situation is increasingly being replaced by mediated contacts. While they expand the potential pool of conversational partners, they also carry risks that have only recently caught the attention of the worlds of science and medicine. It is worth considering these issues in the context of preparing students for professions that involve social interactions.
