A theater is the one were you would see a play or musical or live performance. Theatre is like a movie theatre were you would see a movie. A non-live pperformance that also has props, actors,and lighting but is not live and is taped so many can see it.

great question madhavi:) yOU know though these words sound synonimous but still there lies a "deep" difference !! Happiness can be found of things which may not even be beneficial to our spiritual or psychological aspect like we may go out & have our favourite dish & clothes etc., we would feel happy. But satisfaction comes from a kind of achievent, if we get good grades in studies we would get a positive feeling that says "hard word paid off" now thats more beneficial isn't it ;p[ Now peace.... I think it depends on what attitude we adopt towads the "activities" we do for "happiness" or either "satisfaction", peace actually exist in our self, it just has to be found by us. A person of ignorance might feel peace while a hard worker could be strresed. It can be even oposite to that . So peace needs to found by us.

They both mean exactly the same thing. Both mean the on-stage performance or the stage itself. The only difference is that the British spell it "theatre" and the Americans usually spell it "theater."

Theatre is the one involving acting on a stage with lighting like on broadway.
Theater is like at the movies.

Just a spelling difference. 'Theatre' originally from a French word, thus the spelling. (1) Although there have been several -re/-er spelling changes. (2) "In British usage, some words of French, Latin, or Greek origin end with a consonant followed by -re, with the -re unstressed and pronounced [ə(ɹ)]. Most of these words have the ending -er in the U.S."

They both mean the same thing - but theatre is the British version - and theater is the American version.
I'm not British but I always use - theatre. It just seems classier and more artsy to me.

Theatre is on-stage.
Theater is a movie theater.
Most of the theatre people that I know get really upset if you use them incorrectly. Me being one of them.
