Deliberately or not, people tend to undervalue the role of playwrights compared to directors, actors, and actresses. We all know that a playwright writes plays, but few have explored the core competencies of playwrights. According to Lajos Egri, the author of this book, playwriting is all about building character-driven conflicts with a premise. After learning his approaches, you can become a great storyteller and sophisticated viewer who can interpret any play. Since its publication in 1946, The Art of Dramatic Writing has become a classic on the subject of creative writing. It remains a must-read for students of playwriting and screenwriting and is highly acclaimed by top Hollywood screenwriters.
