Studying Plays by Mick Wallis

This is an accessible and lively introduction to the essential tools for studying a dramatic text. Looking at the four key areas--dialogue, action, character, and space--the book focuses on the specifically dramatic aspects of plays, rather than on purely literary or theoretical concerns. Looking in detail at Death of a Salesman, A Doll's House, and King Lear among many others, the authors set the dramatic texts in their historical context, paying attention to the significance of particular theater buildings, actors, and audiences. Exercises at the end of each section and a glossary will help anyone wanting to learn more about drama.
