Theatrical plays have existed nearly as long as society itself, but it wasn't until the 1500s that the theater and production of plays formalized. Since the days of those original players, thousands of recorded plays appeared in theaters worldwide. With the advent of the Internet and governing theater organizations, the process of documenting and recording production plays has developed into a much easier task. Due to these technological advances and the efforts of theater scholars, finding and researching plays like "Glow in the Dark" is a much easier task.
