All Dramatic and Theatrical Works

Individual works composed as spoken or sung dramatic text and staged as theatre, including tragedy, classical and traditional Asian theatrical drama, and communal passion plays. Belongs here: tragedies, dramas and staged plays recognized as significant individual works, whatever the tradition or era. Does not belong here: works built primarily from choreography rather than dramatic text, which are grouped under Dance and Choreographic Works, and staged works whose primary art form is music (opera, oratorio), which stay under Musical Compositions.
