What is the theme of the short story the show must go on

No matter what happens, it is best to go with the flow and try to make the obstacles into opportunities.

Explanation:

In the short story "The Show Must Go On", we see the character of Tessa less impressed with her partner Varick, a Midwestern boy who had never ventured out of his hometown. Tessa had hoped for a partner who would be her equal and would provide a great help into her own project but was instead paired with a nobody like Varick.

Tessa may have been initially not impressed with her partner but when things don't go her way, she saw that the calm and easy going approach of Varick is more successful than her pre -planned and pre -organized approach. Varick's "go with the flow" attitude trumps her own ideas, and his advice of turning obstacles into opportunities showed her that not all things work out according to her plans. The theme of the story can be said that it is best to accept things as they come and make the best of it, going with the flow.

the answer is both an appeal to ethos and logos (if that's what your question options were)
