How to write a Play?
"Plays are not written, they are re-written" is a myth. Once you've written your dialogue, 80% of any help we might have given is eliminated. The major choices, about story and character, have been made and a commitment made. The earlier a play is brought to the table, the more help can be effectively applied. With this sort of pre-dialogue work our aim is: get it right the first time.












Structure - a play's story and the way of placing it onstage - is the key element in determining effective character and dialogue.
Characters are known not by what they say, but rather, by what they do. Dialogue is most effective as a reflection of intent, in communicating dramatic movement. Primary attention to structure, therefore, insures a proper perspective on developing a play's other elements
