    You are definitely right about reading the play in one sitting. That's how you know it's a good play, too. When you can't put it down. It's like watching a movie. You don't just stop watching midway and decide to finish watching the following week. lol I think simple dialogue drives a play forward and you seemingly forget you're reading.

    I am about to indulge into examining a play for the first time. It's called "The Life of Galileo." So thank you for inspiring me, you and Majora Gooden

    I'm not used to just reading dialogue and I seem to be stuck reading scripts monotonously. Struggling to really understand or recall much.
    Any help?
