"Being a creative playwright is a subtle art," says Peter Salzano, an experienced playwright who has earned fame in the industry with his excellent work.
With his treasure of experience, he has collected the plethora of common mistakes that most of the playwrights do during their initial career stage. Therefore, to help the beginners, Peter Salzano shares a list of common mistakes that every playwright must avoid.
Here's what he has to share:
- Narrowing the boundary of the main idea.
- Discontinuing the interest of the audience by a subplot.
- Writing in anachronisms by skipping the time and place
- Ignoring the burning questions
- Not fixing the plot holes
- Creating dialogues that are unreal and irrelevant
- Adding your favorite song in the play whether it fits in or not.
- Overdependency on research and adding very little creativity.
All in all, these are the common mistakes that new scriptwriters (or even the professional ones) generally make. Peter J Salzano has highlighted these errors so that the young talents can enjoy the audience applaud.
