Guy,
Hope you don't mind me leaving you a message?
I know you are having probs with stage directions etc. so can I recommend you read a book called "WRITING YOUR FIRST PLAY" by Roger A. HALL??
(apologies if I'm teaching my grandmother to suck eggs!!)
Also, re: subtext and your problem with conveying thoughts, look at "WRITING DIALOGUE FOR SCRIPTS" by Rib DAVIS.
Both of these are invaluable aids to the tyro playwright, in my opinion.
Kind regards,
FINDO
