By A.S. Freeman. Most productions are not developmental for the script and that usually means the text being used is effectively final. As is often the case, the playwright is usually not in the room, and so they have no say in the changes being made to their script. As a supporter of playwrights' rights, I often feel that I must become the de facto voice of the writer, to protect the integrity of their text.
