“They leave the viewer free of the story itself, which after its telling is finished has become a memory (often pleasurable) set firmly in the past, available for revisiting at will, but contained. In order to emphasize this past-ness of classical dramas, some ancients insisted that the drama be set entirely in one place within one local day. Dramas that remain open and unresolved necessarily employ different conventions, techniques, and narrative structures than do those of classical drama as it has developed over the millennia. — Alexandra Jador of Pleth, The Art of Holodrama”
