Description
How Plays Work has grown out of David Edgar s teaching in the University of Birmingham s MA course in playwriting studies, which he founded twenty years ago. Through historical and modern examples, the book analyzes the basic elements of dramatic structure, action, plot, character, dialogue, and genre.
