Last time it was all about how characters reacting and talking the way they’re supposed to on stage creates the mood but this entry is about TIME. Synchronization: In a play, time runs parallel; two to three hours happening in real time. A sort of dramatized reality show. What you see happening is happening in the time things take in the real world.  Thus the convention is somehow shared with movies and TV… And yet there’s bullet time and fast forward video, hence time is a lot more constricting in a play.Novels… Novels have Windows time. We describe or stop describing to set pace. To decode takes longer, we need…

We only need to be told we're playing and we play.

Do we have to care about what comes up in theatre when we don't even write playwrights? Maybe not. Except for the part in which the different media covet what the other media CAN do.

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.
