Analogous one-act plays

February 24, 2008

This book cover makes use of an analogous colour scheme—five colours in all, but nevertheless all taken from side by side on the colour wheel: yellow, yellow-green, green, blue-green, and blue.

The Apple Computer Dictionary defines analogous as “comparable in certain respects, typically in a way that makes clearer the nature of the things compared.” In this sense then, using an analogous colour scheme for a book of plays that all share a common trait—being one act long—has some significance.
