Conclusion
There will always be lots of ‘cooks’ in the kitchen, or is that playwrights in the theater, then there are also the critics, the academics, the audience, seasoned theater-goers and writers, newbies and wanna-be’s. For all of us there is something to learn and appreciate, experience that promises mystery, intrigue, enjoyment and shared moments. That is drama, that is live-theatre. There are just as many opinions as to what makes for GREAT theatre and drama.
People and playwrights make up rules about the theatre, drama and plays as they go along, learn and master new things, find the groove and/or style that works for them and so on. There are no formulas and rules really to hold as the ‘ideal’. It is what it is! Do not get so caught up in the nitty-gritty or mechanics of play-writing that it loses some of it fun, enjoyment and true core.
Drama-writers have lots to learn and discover, each separately and collectively, to unearth the beauty and art, refined craftsmanship that is play-writing! Good luck on your learning, journey of self-discovery into the wonderful arenas and universe that is theater and drama.
YOU TOO CAN MAKE THE MOST OF PLAY-WRITING, in its truest form, an art-form based and practices, on the interpretation of dramatic literature combining, playwriting, acting, directing, and stagecraft. Welcome to the world of riches that are plays or other dramatic performances!
