Scripts and play texts are a very important part of theater education and research. There are many uses for scripts and plays. Scripts may be used for performance. You can use them to audition for a role or complete a performance assignment. Scripts are also important for research because you can analyze and review them as you would any academic text. Performance scripts that were used by actors, directors, and stage designers are important because they may include notes or direction. These can be valuable texts when you're exploring a specific production or the history of a play's performance.
