That is stupid. It's only us amateur dramatics people who come up with our own lines, because we haven't got time to learn the script/can't be bothered/the audience won't know the difference anyway. The real professionals have to stick to the script.

I once had an equally bizarre conversation with someone who simply couldn't get her head around the fact that silent films - or dialogue-free films - also have scripts.
If I remember rightly, it was round about the time I staged the first UK commercial run of Samuel Beckett's 'Film', and casually mentioned that it had no spoken dialogue aside from a "Sssh!" - to which I got a response along the lines of "so if there's no dialogue and he didn't direct it, what did Beckett actually do?"

If you're really that interested, here's an RSS feed for the latest comments to this blog. Never miss another pointless argument.
Of course comments are moderated, in a common-sense sort of a way. You don't have to give your email address to post here.
If you know your HTML, you can use <a>, <b>, and <i> tags, and entities, too. If you don't, you can still use them, but with a greater sense of trepidation.
Cheers.
