Sometimes I think we forget that storytelling first came around a campfire. That human drama, and the development of character came first through oral tradition, and then into written documentation. This, I think, is what makes the role of a playwright so challenging. This is what makes Shakespeare so fascinating – both his works, and the man. He never forgot that a story must first be heard in order to be understood.
