Straight play

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A straight play is a a traditional theatrical production. While music is one of Aristotle's six elements of theatre, a straight play does not usually include singing. However, singing may be used for characterisation. Usually, the term straight play does not include the theatre of the absurd. Straight play is commonly used to differentiate a non-musical from a musical.
