- A play is not a flat work of literature, not a description in poetry of another world, but is in itself another world passing before you in time and space.
- Remember, you can’t just decide the planet is wintry or dark because you think it would look more interesting in snow or smog, at least not yet.
- Seeking what changes, don’t forget to ask what changes in you, the imaginer of worlds. Ask, what has this world demanded of me?
Three things to talk about
- In most dramatic worlds there are hidden, or at least unseen, spaces. Ask questions about them as well.
- What is the mood on this planet? Jolly? Serious? Sad? Ironic? Sepulchral?
- Important as these internal systems are, dramatic worlds don’t just speak to and within themselves; they also speak to each other
