The theatre is an essential art form that is forever evolving. A
well-written play can make us laugh, cry, cringe, or reflect. It
can confirm what we already know, or it can introduce us to new
worlds. It can relax us, or incite us to action. Writing for the
Stage - A Playwright's Handbook is a step-by-step guide to dramatic
writing. Drawing on proven methods and professional insights, this
book explores the mechanics of playwriting and the skills needed to
create a compelling story. It aims to help readers understand the
art and craft of writing for the stage and avoid some of the
pitfalls. Topics covered include defining a play; starting points;
the importance of structure; the first draft and rewrites; placing
the work and negotiating rehearsals and, finally, the playwright in
a devising context.
