What is the difference between "в" and "на"?
What is the difference between "в" and "на" when used with location?
I read the following sentences in a textbook.
Книга в столе. = A book is in the table.
Книга на столе. = A book is on the table.
The following sentences are both correct? What's the difference?
Он в театре.
Он на театре.

If you will say "он в театре" It will be correct. That means that someone is located inside the building. But If the sentence construction will be "он на театре" the meaning will be another. It will be like someone is on the roof.
в = inside
на = on the top, above

depends on the next word and the location
Он на театре. -- wrong
