Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This book sets out in specific terms the formula for a sucessful play with reasons and pitfalls of both ignoring and following the formula. It is ideally suited to classroom use and has an inclusive glossary. The examples plays used will spark discussion although I found them the least helpful portion of the book. It is clear and concise and as useful as any book can be in this area. The roles of protagonist, antagonist and inciting incident are explored not only in contemporary but historical terms and the lessons contained would benefit any writer of any type not just the beginning playwright. It is a book I will pick up over and over again while writing as a guide not only in the idea stage but final polishing. I highly recommend it as it is very readable and practical. It was used with great results in a playwrighting seminar I attended.
