What is conventions devisers apply?Show answer
Common non-realist conventions include direct address, narration, multi-roling, song or movement that interrupts the action, placards or projected text, freeze frames and transitions performed in full view. Each is a tool with a purpose. The deviser chooses conventions to clarify an idea or provoke a response, and combines them consistently so the style reads as deliberate rather than accidental.
