Hi,
This is my first post here, but I wanted to step in and write something about PTA. In PTA, we know each individual character's issue and we know in which episode this issue will peak. What we don't know, before actually playing any given episode, is how all the characters' issues will bounce off each other. I think something similar robably happens at the season level, too. For me, this is PTA's "fruitful void": no matter what the show is "about" (the mob, space cowboys, etc.), PTA is going to explore how our problems and goals (issues) effect the problems and goals of people around us.
