The Art of Writing Drama is an indispensable textbook for wherever
writing for the stage is taught, but also serves as a foundational
book for any student taking courses in performance media - radio,
television and film. Coupling theory with practice, the book opens
with a survey of the current methodologies of teaching playwriting
and of textual analysis. The theories of Bakhtin, Foucault and
Derrida are examined as are the agendas of play reviewers from the
national press. In the second section of the book, a wealth of
guidance with practical exercises on the skills of writing for the
stage is provided. Throughout the text, Wandor draws on her
extensive experience as both playwright and teacher of creative
writing to provide a guide that is both a scholarly and an
immensely practical guide to writing for the theatre.
