5 Tips to Help You Read a Play Script
1. Read With a Pencil
• Use scenes or acts to keep your notes
organized.
• Leave extra space for additional
impressions as you read through the play
each time.

2. Visualize the Characters
• Unlike fiction, a play does not typically offer a lot
of vivid detail.
• It is common for a playwright to briefly describe
a character as he or she enters the stage.
• It is up to the reader to create a lasting mental
image. What does this person look like? How
do they sound? How do they deliver each
line?

3. Contemplate the Setting
• Try to imagine the sets and costumes as they
read.
• Consider whether or not the historical context is
important to the story.

4. Research the Historical Context
• If the time and place is an essential component, you
should learn more about the historic details.
• Some plays can only be understood when the context is
evaluated.
• Without knowledge of the historical context, much of the
significance of these stories could be lost.
• With a little bit of research into the past, you can
generate a new level of appreciation for the plays you're
studying.

5. Sit in the Director's Chair
• To visualize the play, think like a director.
– What are those characters doing?
– Does the protagonist rant and rave?
– Or does she remain eerily calm, delivering the lines with an icy gaze?
• Get comfortable in that director’s chair.
• Appreciate the dramatic literature, you must imagine the cast, the
set, and the movements.
• Read through the play once then write down your first impressions.
• On the second reading, add the details of the character's actions
and personalities.
– What color hair does your actor have? What style of dress? Is there
wallpaper on the wall of the room? What color is the sofa? What size is the
table?
