  1. Just read Tracy Letts' AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY and John Logan's RED - both Tony-winning plays and absolutely exhilarating lessons in how to craft great naturalistic-but-clever dialogue. Maybe, once in a while, we need to read quality plays to remind ourselves just how good dramatic writing can and should be.

      Sounds tasty - might you please share? Dialogue is the dickens.

      You can read AUGUST for free right here:

      Unfortunately, RED I had to buy on Kindle for six bucks and it doesn't let you share. I'm not a big fan of Logan's screenplays but RED is great.

      RED is worth the six bucks, so is August Osage.

       

      Really terrific plays, and as you asid benskelly, great to see how good dialogue can be.
