Comparison:
"Visual action can be as important on the stage as speech." How far do you agree with this claim?
I agree with this claim 100 percent, because on both the Oedipus and The Wild Duck there has been a lot of visual explanation that helps the reader visualize how the scene looks like without having to see it. And I can understand why there would be a lot of visual action, because back in the day there wasn't lots of different sets like there is today and so if they only have one set they had to explain how the scene was suppose to look like. Like in Oedipus, Sophocles had to explain the Palace and in in The Wild Duck Ibsen has to explain all the different rooms the people are in.
