A specific exposition stage is criticized by Lajos Egri in The Art of Dramatic Writing.

Lajos N. Egri ( born June 4, 1888 ; died February 7, 1967 ) was the author of The Art of Dramatic Writing, which is widely regarded as one of the best works on the subject of playwriting, though its teachings have since been adapted for the writing of short stories, novels, and screenplays.

Egri wrote his first three act play at the age of ten, according to his biographical sketch in The Art of Dramatic Writing.

In 1965, Egri expanded on his views of character development and motivation in the book, The Art of Creative Writing.

He states, “ exposition itself is part of the whole play, and not simply a fixture to be used at the beginning and then discarded .” According to Egri, the actions of a character reveal who they are, and exposition should come about naturally.

According to Egri, well defined characters will drive the plot themselves, and so the foundation of character is the essential germination of a well crafted story.

" Having settled on this theme, Egri writes, the playwright can detect in the statement the suggestion of a story's beginning, middle, and end: first, the establishment of an obsessively stingy character ; next, the collision of that character's stinginess with inevitable opposition, or antithesis ; and finally the character's ruin.
