I'm in the process of writing a one-act play. I'll submit it next sememster when they pick which ones to produce. But I've never written a play before and was wondering if anyone knew what characteristics a one-act play should have. I know the conflict needs to be introduced quickly, but is there anything else in particular? Google wasn't much help.
