Sound dialogue
I had a meeting today over drinks where the following conversation took place verbatim. The two speaking had just gotten onto the topic of music.
Woman (30’s, attractive blonde): My husband has an organ.
Man (30’s, also good-looking): How big is it?
Woman: It’s pretty big. He keeps it in the garage.
Man: Can I come see it?
Woman: I can send a picture. He takes it out and plays with it now and then.
If I put that into a play, no one would buy it.

Was it Maugham who observed that real Life was too trite and/or unconvincing to put on stage?

You could roll it out and try it on for size, Lee. See if there’s any takers.

You mean roll out the dialogue or roll out the organ?
