Miscellanea Writing a musical is a challenging yet rewarding experience.
It differes from writing a play in one very obvious way - the musical numbers. These musical numbers play an important role in character development. Ballads and slower pieces often convey deep emotions of sorrow, loss, love, or despair while up-tempo numbers allow a character to express their joy, elation, or excitement. Often, musical numbers are written for more than one character. The 'love' duet is a common inclusion in any musical.
