Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book introduces novice playwrights to the techniques and practices that will strengthen their craft. The author guides readers through the various stages of playwritingâ"from developing compelling subjects and stories to building engaging characters and dialogue to writing effective stage directions. Avoiding esoteric theories, this book instead focuses on the practical advice and historically successful methods that ensure a play reaches its full potential. Plays have been a part of human culture since ancient times, but the author traces the evolution of dramatic technique since the days of the Greeks. The evolution of the drama from one period to the next, and even from one playwright to the next, has produced a rich tapestry of approaches that provide playwrights with a vast repertoire of methods to suit any topic or style. The author distinguishes techniques common to successful plays, as well as those unique to certain periods and individual playwrights. This distinction is significant because it demonstrates that playwrights should not merely imitate past successes but should adapt, modify, and innovate based on their own artistic vision. The book provides historical examples to illustrate that while certain elements are common to all successful plays, the best dramas are those that successfully combine the familiar with the fresh and original. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
