Adaptation is the craft of reworking a novel, play, film, or other source material into a new script format while preserving its dramatic core, a central skill for Playwrights who take on commissioned or derivative work rather than only original scripts. In India, adaptation work spans reworking regional literature for stage, translating classics for contemporary theatre, and adapting international plays for local audiences and languages. It's learned through dramaturgy training and hands-on writing practice rather than certification, and pays off most for playwrights building relationships with repertory theatres and festivals.
