ESSAY: PARABLE Using dialogue is the first step in learning to write drama. A good exercise to understand the process of dramatization is to make a dialogue out of another story.

Here is your goal for this assignment:

Compose a short dialogue.

1. Select a parable from the New Testament (such as the prodigal son, the five foolish virgins, or the tares of the field) or an episode from the Old Testament (Ruth, Naomi, and Boaz; David and Goliath).

2. Reread the passage carefully, deciding what the emphasis should be.

3. Next, decide how many characters will be necessary, listing their Biblical names and a brief character description. Also visualize the setting, and describe it in a brief introduction.

4. Now write the scene in dialogue, using modern English. Your play should be no less than 250 words.

You will be graded on the following criteria:

1. Play contains a brief description of the setting and at least 250 words of dialogue.

2. Make sure your essay contains no errors in conventions such as spelling and grammar errors.
