Jean Menzies and Carl Anka explore the form, structure and language in An Inspector Calls. We'll hear how An Inspector Calls is written in the form of a play and meant to be heard and seen in performance. An Inspector Calls is written in three acts. Priestley cleverly structures the acts so that they end on gripping cliff-hangers. There is also a final climax and then a twist at the very end. This use of structure helps to keep the audience gripped and on the edge of their seats. The language in An Inspector Calls includes dialogue and stage directions Extracts are taken from a BBC Radio 4 production of An Inspector Calls.
