What are the 7 principles of theatre plays? p1
Before attempting to attribute myself merits I don’t own; I must confess of theatrical plays I have but read Oscar Wilde and a bit of Shakespeare [not in English]. And I have never been into any play but something by Molière I can’t recall (some high school literature teachers send kids to theatres to watch low budget plays in Mexico so they don’t have to read —I went cause my friends had to and it sounded like fun not because my teacher did send me) and «Confesiones de mujeres de 30».
Once confessed, the second thing is to speak of the source. The source is a YouTube channel called ‘El rinconcito’ and … It is in Spanish but the link is here just in case. That video and whatever it is I know about writing fiction, together make this entry up. Capice?
THE AUDIENCE… DOESN’T CARE
Thus, let’s start by semi? quoting. And I say semi since I’m going to summarize it the way I got it and not copy paste the entire text as is.
The audience gives a bull about the kind of a theatre play they’re watching. They won’t analyze if it is dialogued or narrated or whatever. The audience cares about liking it or not liking it.
If I refer this to any single media (movie, manga, comic, play, videogame, TV); the sentence might pretty much sound like this:
The audience (target) doesn’t care if they’re watching videogame referenced aesthetics, over repeated Korean clichés or cheap cringey scenes with tears on their eyes whilst saying their fare-thee-wells. Their only care is if they like it or not.
That itself is interesting. It should be another entry (and here, I open the parenthesis to talk aloud to myself: Do you see Merriam?, you should use it for more useless material). The target wants it to be effective. Likeable to them[1].
