Summary


In this chapter, we learned what dramatic stage plays are and how to outline them using Celtx's Text element. We started a Theatre Project and did the set up of the project container for our play. We also explored Celtx's script elements for a stage play—Act, Scene, Stage Direction, Character, Dialog, Parenthetical, and Transition. We then printed out our play and saw what the Cast button does.

Using what we've learned previously and the new material presented in this chapter, enables us to write exciting, professionally-formatted stage plays.

Next, listen up please, because we'll be talking about audio plays.
