DisPlay: Multimedia Drama Analysis Program for the PC

Description: The DisPlay Program offers a range of analytical tools which allow the user to investigate a section of play text in terms of the relationship between the play as a written work and as a performance. The package allows various operations to be performed upon the play text: logging formal details; re-writing some of the stage directions; juxtaposing two versions of the play text; constructing a graphic representation of the staging for a scene. The user can input their own choice of text into the Speeches Book, Text Comparer, Essay or Context/Subtext sections, or images and video-clips into the Visuals & Movie or The Set sections. DisPlay can be used both to analyse text and as a production aid.

Requirements: IBM-compatible PC; at least 2MB RAM; 386 processor or better.
