| I'm also tired of the new expectation: that everything must be 90 minutes or just under. Many extraordinary pieces have that running time ("Night, Mother" always springs to mind). But many playwrights these days bemoan this new taste for the 90 minute run time. You see it in submission preferences. The hour and a half full-length play will always be welcome and useful as a canvas size. But I also appreciate a well-crafted piece of storytelling that knows where to send an audience out for a break. To think, to consider, mull, and to return refreshed. Attention span may be a factor. Or it just might be the taste du jour. |
