Theater is a bad major for anyone hoping to be employed after college. It's a pretty good minor with just about anything, though.

Theatre is like any other college major- it takes hard work, discipline and a willingless to learn and capacity to retain what you've learned. If you have a handle on your disability, you can earn a degree in theatre or any other concentration you chose.

Inability to articulate coherently and to concentrate?

Sounds like every Theatre Major I ever met.
