    ON vs OFF

    We say ON when we want to indicate the something is functioning, e.g.

    The television is ON

     

    We say OFF when we want to indicate the something is NOT functioning, e.g.

    The lights are OFF

     

    Generally speaking, ON is a preposition:

    The book is ON tyhe table

     

    And OFF is an adverb:

    Take OFF your coat

    AT THE THEATRE and IN THE THEATRE

    If you are AT the theatre you are watching a play or some other performance.

     If you are IN the theatre you are there for a different reason,perhaps you are working as a clearner or an electrician. Or maybe you are the manager!!

     

    When we participate in the reason that a building, intstitution or establishment was created we usually say AT,

    e.g AT home, AT the cinema

    But if we want to indicate position only we say IN:

    John is the house, the workers are IN the cinema
