Playwriting: a Study in Choices and Challenges (Lillenas Drama Resource How to Book) Paul Mccusker

(Lillenas Publications). A text for all interested in the art of scriptwriting and particularly Christian playwriting. "OK, so you want to write plays. Maybe plays for your church, your local theatre group, perhaps for any group anywhere who has need for a play with a distinctive moral perspective: a world-view born out of Holy Scripture, the great creeds, the writings of those spiritual fathers who came before you, or your own personal experience with Jesus Christ. You want to write plays to fulfill that persistent itch that won't be scratched until you put pen to paper, or keyboard to computer. You want to write plays because a deep stirring a calling demands that you write them." So says Paul McCusker in his introduction to this seminal text on playwriting. Filled with explanations, examples, and exercises, the work will fast become a text for all interested in the art of scriptwriting more particularly Christian playwriting.
