{"product_id":"the-playwrights-manifesto-paul-sirett-9781350204294","title":"The Playwright's Manifesto: How You Can Be The Future of Playwriting","description":"A manifesto for the future of playwriting, this book challenges you to be a part of that future in the belief that it is fundamentally important to write plays. Plays help us understand ourselves, others, and the world around us. Reading this book, you will be challenged to learn your craft, explode what you know, prioritise what is important to you, and write in the way that only you can write.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eMost books on playwriting explain how to create a believable character in a story driven by plot. This book, however, goes even further in its exploration of the playwright's most valuable tool: theatricality. By learning from the past, and the present, the playwrights of tomorrow can create new, vivid, theatrical drama for the future.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis manifesto also examines the process of writing, the art of collaboration, and the impact of writing on a playwright's mental health. It identifies the highs and lows, as well as the trials and tribulations, of life as a playwright in today's world. Theatre is a living artform. It is time for playwrights to acknowledge that fact and to celebrate the unique, primal thrill that a live theatre experience offers us. The future of playwriting is in your hands. Do you accept the challenge?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Paul Sirett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1350204293\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781350204294\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Publishing PLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/08\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 304\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.69d","brand":"Paul Sirett","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44966313591039,"sku":"9781350204294","price":95.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_790f6996-3dd2-4d2c-947d-47fa6423f58b.jpg?v=1711159488","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-playwrights-manifesto-paul-sirett-9781350204294","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
