Yes, it seems basically impossible to teach. The closest I've come to a good explaination of the experience is that it's like memories (the way we remember things, compared to the way things really were.. "truth" v. facts. The truths are more important) Or that it's like the way things work in dreams. The more good plays I've read & seen, the more I've come to understand the specific skills of playwriting. Edward Albee's THE PLAY ABOUT THE BABY is one I liked a great deal.
