Play-Making - A Manual of Craftsmanship is a guidebook which answers the essential question: "How do I write theatrical drama?" This book is a valuable resource for aspiring playwrights who wish to learn essential techniques of authoring a quality stage play. William Archer, an educator in English literature, presents the traditional theory of play composition in a manner both straightforward and engaging in a manner useful, practical and highly accessible. The text begins by examining the choice of theme, the casting of characters, and what constitutes dramatic and undramatic elements of a play. A sequential look at each portion of the typical play begins; the first act establishes the place and characters, and must set up what is to follow with tension and curiosity. Drawing on unrivaled masters of the craft such as William Shakespeare and Henrik Ibsen, this book offers an informed and authoritative commentary on composing plays useful for both students and teachers of English literature or drama.
