Understanding Modern Drama Texts
Overzicht
You are allowed your copy of the play in the drama examination. That sounds like a gift, and it is one of the most reliable ways to lose marks. Candidates who do not know the play spend twelve minutes flicking through it, find something roughly relevant, quote it at length, and produce an essay that is mostly other people's words. Candidates who do know the play open it twice, land on the exact line they had already planned to use, and spend the rest of the time thinking.
This note is about the knowledge that makes an open book useful: the shape of a play in your head, the arc of each character, the moments that turn it, and the habit of writing about all of it in a critical voice that sounds like a reader with a view rather than a reader with a summary.
