Playwriitng with org?

Playwriitng with org?

Earlier I used to use troff and wrote play/drama-like pieces using that
eg http://www.the-magus.in/Publications/ewd.pdf

Later we switched to latex and using play.sty. Here is an example:
http://www.the-magus.in/Publications/DotingOnTheDot.pdf

I would now like to stay in org as much as possible and use latex as the
backend — using maybe play.sty but there seem to be alternatives like
dramatist.sty.

Is this possible/easy/worthwhile?

Thanks
Rusi

Honestly I have no idea. But just in case you are not aware of it, there
is a mode for screenwriters:
