Art:Perspectives on Illusion: Setting and Staging in Drama
Every author has to create a setting for his work. In short stories and poems, the details of time and place are crucial to the tone and theme of the work. The same is true of drama. Playwrights must create a specific setting, a world in which the characters live, but these writers must also assume that the play they are writing will be performed or staged for an audience and pay careful attention to the way of the audience will see that play, sometimes offering their comments in the form of stage directions.
