Dramaturgy Dramaturgy is the study of dramatic composition and the representation of the main elements of drama on the stage. The word "dramaturgy" was coined by Gotthold Ephraim Lessing in his influential work "Hamburg Dramaturgy", which was written while employed as the world's first dramaturg at the Hamburg National Theatre. Dramaturgy is a distinct practice separate from play writing and directing, although a single individual may perform any combination of the three. Some dramatists combine writing and dramaturgy when creating a drama. Others work with a specialist, called a dramaturg, to adapt a work for the stage.
