Duologues

/ˈdjuːəlɒɡz/ noun

Definition

Plural of duologue; conversations or dramatic scenes between exactly two people.

Etymology

From duo- (Latin for 'two') + -logue (from Greek logos meaning 'word' or 'speech'). The form became popular in English theatre in the 17th century to describe intimate two-person scenes.

Kelly Says

Duologues are the opposite of monologues—they're the theatrical sweet spot where two characters can argue, confess, or flirt in real time, which is why many of the most memorable scenes in drama happen between just two people.
