I will look at this dream with a technique I call "a line at a time" where I derive meaning sentence by sentence or in groups of sentences. At the end I will summarize and hopefully you will recognize the significance of your dream. Sometimes this method is a bit trite or repetitive but usually the journey is well worth the effort. I have not read it yet so we will discover it together.
My comments will be in blue...

Spiraling stairs, putting shoes on ??
I remember being in a movie theatre, a small one and people were sittting down in the theatre seats who I knew them from high school. Yes the movie theater dream is one whose scenario (that which happens on stage or in the theatre represents or acknowledges things going on in the dreamers life. Some of them were friends and some of them I use to hate at school. One of my friendsSo your subconscious mind is saying that you will be put in the arena of your life so that you can gain a better perspective of what is going on. Insinuating that it is time to become aware of some aspect of your life.
gets up and walks out of the theatre and decides to leave, I as well leave but go to the front of the movie theatre and retrieve my pair of shoes.Now you are being shown as you are, the path that you are on in your life. Even though you are not in the theater now, assume that you are still on "stage" so to speak. The dream has the spotlight on you so you can become aware of something happening in your life.
This wasn't an ordinary theatre, when you went out theatre doors it lead to an outside spiraling staircase with a railing spiraling too about 3 stories high.IN this context each level represents a level within you being...ground floor (waking life), First floor...the subconscious or higher self. The top floor...the superconscious mind (your spiritual makeup). I was outside sitting on the staircase putting my shoes on and someone I didn't like from school was coming up the spiraling staircase and went pass me and as he went pass me he said "Your weird". I said "what!?" in a angrily voice, then it escalated and I had put both my shoes on by now. I started to go down the staircase quickly. These spiraling stairs had obstacles where u had to duck under almost a limbo style to continue down the stairs.Showing the emotional obstacles that you face in your waking life...Perhaps sometimes in reality you try very hard to fit in, sometimes even stooping to lows or avoiding issues that are not becoming of the person that you are inside... that are not in reality, the real you.
I eventually made it to the bottom of the staircase. I now realise that these spiraling stairs lead to a playground not a kids playground but a highschool playground and a teacher was on duty. He wasn't too far behind me so I quickly moved near the teacher,Showing that you in some way are bullied or made to feel insecure. so if he did anything he would be in trouble.
The teacher notices something going on in the playground and then moves to see what is happening and the person following me comes near to me, and I'm standing face to face with him, I thought he was going to hit me but he says to "come and sit down". ?? let's see what plays out because the context will dictate the meaning of this. There were long steel seats around us and we sit down. We start arguing loud I can't remember what about and then nearby were a group of his friends sitting down and they come over to me saying why I start trouble for and I explain the whole thing defending myself verbally and they decide that I wasn't and are all okay with me.Okay, often times you feel misunderstood but in standing up for yourself (recently as a tactic you employ) you ahve been somewhat successful in overcoming some issues that have had you mistakenly being the bad guy in waking life.
I remember as well another dream where I was sitting down with other people I don't know around a table and was playing cards, I'm not sure what game I was playing. I don't remember how many cards I was holding but I remember I had spades as one suit and another card I had was a joker because there were no numbers on it but it wasn't an ordinary joker card, some weird picture on it teal colour.Showing that you sometimes "play" your way out of tense situations...kidding or putting on an air of whatever will get you of the situation.
In summary, you have had difficulties getting along with your peers. At times you might say that you have even been bullied to the point that as a matter rule you have become quite adept at social agility (so as to dodge and move past the barriers that those in your midst throw your way. This dream is an awareness that explores your behavior as being somewhat successful strategy in dealing with those who give you trouble while at the same time there is innuendo that points out that this avoidance behavior is not natural...it is not the real you.
In this type of dream I always find it amusing that a solution is not mentioned, but rather the situation is layed out on stage (so to speak) that says, hey pay attention, this is your life. Then everything is left up to you so as to somehow show you "your life" if you choose to change it. It is up to the "free will" side of you, "consciousness"...that being the waking mind, the part of you that has the power to freely act any way that you wish to.
While the subconscious is so very powerful, it is the waking mind (conscious mind) that has the power to command your actions etc. The subconscious mind can only suggest or even show you what is real. The subconscious mind is your true mentor and friend.
Peace to you!
