In this episode, Andrea talks about one of her favorite things: theater... the stage-acting kind (not the cinema or "movie theater").

(NOTE: the preferred spelling for this word in British English is "theatre"... "theater" is the preferred American spelling... they both mean the same thing... some like to say that "theater" refers to the building where "theatre"--the art form--is conducted, but for most, they both mean the same thing and mean both of those things: the building where works of performing arts are conducted AND the art form of creating theatrical shows or productions.)
