| Yes, in the sense that modern plays are micromanaged in a way that older plays, say, Shakespeare's, were not. The book of the musical includes its detailed stage directions, and those directions have to be changed (i.e., not followed religiously). This is in contrast to, say, Henry V, the framing device of which is provided without any micromanagement at all, other than to say that someone has to enter in order to pronounce the spoken text. | |
