... Why I prefer Plays to Films.
Before there were films, plays were the only medium that entertained the masses. ... Then, revolutionary technology has transformed the stage onto the silver screen where film-goers around the world has watched in awe how silent films evolved into spoken epic, endowed with musical score and astounding soundtracks. ...
Plays may lack the magic and fireworks of films. ... Nevertheless, the plays have also evolved. In the hands of the young and creative playwrights and stage designer, plays have equalled films in effects if not its grandeur. ... Famous plays like Gomernghast have foldable props to create a bizarre world equipped with mythical characters. ...
Nobody can argue the fact that plays have better endurance compared to films. Agatha Christie’s record breaking The Mousetrap is the longest running theatrical plays in history. ... William Shakespeare’s plays are still staged throughout the world. Despite the commercial success of films, London’s West End and New York’s Broadway are still packing with audiences that came from all over the world.
